Celebrate Education 121/365

Celebrate Education 2010 was an amazing success! Kalena Meyers and her very creative team made the event fun for all! This year Celebrate Education was held on May 1st - the same day as the Kentucky Derby. So the event was Kentucky Derby themed. The decorations were fantastic, the food was delicious and the guests were a blast! All that and we raised some serious funds for the school - so it was a win win!

Annie - MVA spring play 120/365

This spring the very talented students (and faculty) of Montverde Academy performed Annie and it was fantastic!!!!!!!

A few behind the scenes photos - how cute are they?

Gotta love our little Annie! Han Bit Yoon did a wonderful job. 

I love watching the cast meeting. Lower school, Middle school and Upper school as well as their teachers all together, getting ready to pull off a wonderful show. Very cool!

The truth is - the faculty and staff who participated in the Hooverville scene nearly stole the show! They were a big hit and they had a great time. 

Even after the show - they were still on!

The Lower School 5th graders did a great job in the Orphan scenes. 

The infamous faculty Hooverville scene! You can watch the video of their song here and the rest of their scene here.

Trent and Sarah are a fantastic couple! They are fun, energetic and up for anything. Just about anything I suggested they went for and we had a blast! I'm looking forward to their wedding - it will be gorgeous!
