Students began preparing for the show in January during their weekly music classes with Ms. Holmes, where they learned lines, songs and choreography. Their hard work culminated in a high-energy performance filled with memorable singing, dancing and meaningful messages.

The stage was filled with enthusiasm, bright smiles and a contagious sense of joy as the young performers brought their story to life. The event was a celebration of both their creativity and the healthy habits they shared with the audience.

This cherished tradition, now in its third year, is part of the school’s ongoing effort to celebrate and connect with community first responders.

The event serves as a warm lead-in to Waverly’s upcoming Police/First Responder “Thank You” Breakfast and Parade, and offers students a unique opportunity to engage with local heroes in a fun and meaningful way. Not only does it build positive relationships, but it also supports the school’s mission to foster a lifelong love of reading.

Through this special collaboration, Waverly continues to highlight the importance of community, gratitude and literacy – all in one memorable experience for students and staff alike.
