It was beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Park High Library on Friday, December 20 as students headed into winter break with a variety of festive events among the bookshelves. The fifth annual Holiday Extravaganza, hosted by librarian Kate Lende, included two original plays performed by Carol Powalisz’s classes, poetry readings, Christmas quiz bowl competitions and book giveaways. The day ended with the tradition of guest readers sharing favorite holiday books and Christmas Karaoke, hosted by teacher Bryan Beitel. Enjoy this slideshow of images from the festivities.
The play begins with a graveside remembrance of teacher Jean Brodie by two individuals played by Carson Bekedam and Camille Poncin.
