Our leader, Mrs. LaBlanc, is Working on the idea of having a spring concert of our own. The Glee Club will appear in the graduation exercises as always. We are all very happy to add, that this year we have three seniors, Camille Sicard, Donna Goss, and John Gilmour, who will attend the Vermont All-State in Burlington, Vermont.
