I’m on the road – looking forward to meeting Philadelphia area parents and families tonight, and DC area families on Wednesday. Wake N Shake was this weekend – and we have some great pictures from Ken Bennett to prove it. Enjoy them! Also, an email […]
It’s the end of the week, and the big event of the weekend is Wake N Shake, the 12-hour dance marathon that raises money for the Brian Piccolo Cancer Research Fund. Tons of students are involved, and they have been busy fundraising and also […]
