The event is open to the public, and students hope to attract children who are in pre-school and elementary grades. The students will tell Christmas stories and do some skits to accompany them. In addition, free books will be distributed to the children. Not to be missed is Santa Claus who will distribute candy to the audience. Snacks and refreshments will also be served.
A Christmas Dinner Show will be held on Friday, December 13, 6:30–9:00 P.M. The show will feature singing, Polynesian dancing, and instrumental performances. Pre-sale tickets for the dinner show are $9 for adults and $8 for students. At the door tickets are $10 and $9, respectively. Students are required to have an I.D. The dinner plate will offer soy chicken, rice, macaroni salad, corn, and a brownie with bottled water or juice.
As a gesture of good will during the holiday season, boys from the football team are volunteering to serve food in the cafeteria at lunchtime. The school has lost cafeteria employees due to the school’s declining enrollment, causing slow food service and preparation. The football team stepped right in to help last week and will continue to do so indefinitely.
