The high school band and chorus visited North Scituate Elementary for High Five Friday and put on a concert for elementary students before the winter break! All students gathered in the gymnasium to listen to the band play some holiday tunes and sang along with the chorus.
On Friday, December 20th, North Scituate students had the opportunity to join Mrs. Soccio for the monthly PBIS Incentive of cookie decorating for 50 stars.

Students had fun decorating their own cookies while listening to Christmas music. Thank you to Mrs. Scucces and Mrs. Beaupre for helping Mrs. Soccio run this activity with over 150 students participating!
