On Friday, March 29 and Saturday, March 30 our students in grades four through six presented Once On This Island, a one-act musical with a book and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens and music by Stephen Flaherty
The students did an outstanding job and demonstrated once again how infusing arts into the First Philadelphia curriculum makes such a difference!
Great job to our performers and their families and KUDOS and A HUGE THANK YOU to Ms. Stebich, Ms. Ragonese and Ms. Wible for their hard work preparing the students for this performance.
