WISCASSET ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PERFORMS HOLIDAY SING-ALONG
December 22, 2023 (Wiscasset, ME) –
Wiscasset Elementary School students participated in their annual All-School Holiday
Sing-Along on Friday, December 22nd before heading home for the holiday break. Staff and
students were thrilled to welcome families who came to watch, listen and join-in to the festive
holiday music.
Just before students arrived for the program, they each received a gift of a pair of cozy holiday
socks from our wonderful PIE organization (Partners in Education). Students entered wearing
their new socks ready to sing and dance to the first number, “Christmas at the Hop” in sock-hop
fashion. Other favorites performed included, “Jingle Bells,” “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,”
“La Navidad,” “Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights,” and “Must Be Santa.”
The WES fourth and fifth grade chorus led the event and also performed music from their recent
concert. A highlight included a song called “Thankful” where they sang the verses and all joined
in on the refrain using American Sign Language to thoughtful lyrics. They also enjoyed sharing
their light routine to “Holiday Lights,” and dressing as Christmas trees as they sang, “The
Happiest Christmas Tree.”
The event concluded with all students singing a rousing version of “We Wish You a Merry
Christmas.”
Thank you to our student musicians for sharing your talents and enthusiasm for music and to
the Wiscasset community for supporting music in our schools! Happy Holidays to all!
