IN-SERVICE ELEMENTARY SHOWCASE
EACH district will have a five to seven minute segment of a video to be viewed on Thursday evening of our GMEA, virtual In-Service Conference, 2021.
Due to COVID 19, we are permitted to go back into our archives and pull out something to send in – as far back as 2018!
Perhaps your students performed out in the community at Christmas time and that would be a wonderful contrast to classroom performances.
Contact Deborah McIlrath with any questions.
