Travel to New York City with Cab community!
Here's a great bit of information from Middle School Vocal Music teacher Mr. Lassman:
Tickets for Middle School students and their family to see 'Wicked' sold out last Spring. Now, for those who don't have tickets to 'Wicked,' we are offering another show for that same date. We will be going on Thursday December 3 to see the fabulous show, 'Billy Elliott.' The music is by Elton John and the show won 10 (TEN!) TONY Awards. The cost is $150 per person. All students received permission slips to see 'Billy Elliott' but you can get another one at http://www.ccsavocal.org/CCSA/Billy_Elliott.html
We will leave CCSA as early as we can after 8:30am. Each family will have the day to spend in Times Square as they wish but we will make suggestions for things to do and see. At 7:30pm, we will gather to see the show which starts at 8:00pm. After the show (10:45pm) we will again get on our coach buses and return to CCSA at about 1:15am. Students who go will be excused from school (it is a field trip) on that Thursday.
This is a trip that is annually attended by a LOT of students and parents. Last year we took 465 people on the trip and received many emails saying what a great day it was!
We fully expect this trip to sell out. Return your forms and checks to Mr. Lassman, ASAP. Contact Mr. Lassman at 302-651-2701 x 226, or visit his website (www.CCSAVocal.org).
