Students spent time preparing their events during lesson times and outside of school hours to perform for adjudicators from other area schools. All of the judges were impressed with the performances. Each judge selected one outstanding performance to be recognized as Best of Day from their room. We are pleased to announce that 3 of the events were performed by SGS students!
