| From Mr. Gilligan: |
Thomson Academic and Arts Night - I was thrilled to see so many parents turn out for the Academic/Arts event. Our students were very excited to share academic and artwork with their families. The musical performances were great. Special thanks to all of our staff, especially Ms. Kriz and Ms. Dragosits for helping make the night a special one.
