Congratulations to the Cast and Crew of You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown!
Last Thursday, Middle School packed the auditorium for the debut performance of You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown.  6th and 7th graders made up the cast and crew that started working on this production back in September under the leadership of Kelli Horner, CAG’s MS drama teacher.   All the Peanuts gang came to life on stage through a collection of memorable songs that had us all tapping our toes.
