Come join us right before the Christmas Concert to watch "Who Killed the Tax Man?" The tax man comes to collect at the woodcutter's house where he is accidentally killed. To solve the problem the woodcutter puts him outside the doctor's door. The doctor, thinking a case of malpractice is at hand, drops him in the widow's garden. The widow, thinking he died in her garden, has him moved to the cemetery where he is discovered by a thief. About this time the sheriff arrives. Can the sheriff sort out what happened or is the innocent thief going to hang?

Class schedule changes for the second semester must be made before Christmas break. If you need to make changes see Mr. Dohrman for a Drop/Add Permission Slip.

If this fell off your letter jacket please come see Ginger in the office.
