The program, directed by music teacher Laura
Rachita, was then custom-written based on their answers.
Our character cam caught third graders practicing
hard this week to perfect their songs, which included the patriotic
favorite, You're A Grand Old Flag, as well as our favorite
character songs, I'll Understand, I'm Gonna Keep My
Promises, and Make New Friends. The presentation
concluded with an upbeat song, Oh Grandma and Grandpa, I Love
You!, dedicated to all of our special guests.
A special preview Thursday night treated the
community to a sneak peek at this musical extravaganza. Friday
morning began with a delicious brunch, prepared by Jean Smith,
our cafeteria manager and grandmother to her very own Westwood
third grader this year. Grandparents spent 45 minutes enjoying
the musical and another 45 minutes in the classroom reminiscing
about the days and times of their third-grade experience with
their special someone and his or her classmates. They all went
home with a framed picture of their third grader.
Westwood extends its thanks to our grandparents
for being a special part of our exciting day. We appreciate
our partnership with Koman Furniture and our FISD Transportation
Department for providing the bus shuttle for our grand guests.
