Back in Bloom And the Band Played On!

Parents’ Association Hosts Amazing Community Party

NCCS parents, faculty and staff gathered for an evening of food trucks and fun in the Grace House Circle on April 30. Campfires blazed while friends old and new celebrated the arrival of spring at “Back in Bloom,” a community party hosted by the Parents’ Association.

A raffle was held with prizes including as Movie and Popcorn (for your child’s class), Bring your Pet to School and Design the School Lunch Menu for a Day.

Fell Herdeg, whose band Doghouse was the perfect choice for the evening’s backyard feel-good vibe. The band played a hit parade of covers including by the Eagles, Steely Dan and the Grateful Dead. Many in attendance were inclined to sing along, dance or simply lounge in Adirondack chairs set up around the campfires.
