The Kids are rocking through 50 days of school, and with that said preschool through 5th grade will celebrate the completion of 50 days on Wednesday, November 5th with dress up in '50''s attire. Boys wear your hair slicked back, white t-shirt, leather denim jacket, rolled jeans and black and white shoes. Girls a pony tail and scarf, cat eye glasses, poodle skirt, neck scarf, sweater, and black and white shoes. It's going to be a hip hop kind of party!
