AcaPella attended their last competition this Saturday at Benton.  They ended the season with a 3A championship at Benton, and a perfect record in 3A for the season.  Their next performance is this weekend, here in Pella, at Dutch Masters, on Saturday night at 6pm.  This is a great opportunity to watch other show choirs from all over the state (and out of state) all day, and see our award-winning show at 6pm.  Tickets are available at the door.
Do you have lots of old books from your childhood just sitting around at home? Now you have a use for them! There is going to be a book drive for gently-used books for kids ages 4 through 12. The books you bring will be donated for use of low-income, inner-city kids who normally don’t have access to books, especially at home. The book drive will take place every week until March 13th, the week before spring break. The drop off for donations will be in the guidance office.
