The trip was filled with site achievements, staff celebrations, and student performances. As always, we want to express our appreciation to our staff for their commitment to making every meeting a success, and to our Isaac Community for joining us.
We are thrilled to announce that Joseph Zito Elementary School has joined the Disney Musicals in Schools Program.
