2nd Grade Program

First off let me just say that....Mrs. Cella is the most incredible teacher ever...she is one of a dying breed who loves kids and wants to teach just for the joy of it! for close to 28 years she has taught school and has taught her kids to play the Ukulele. It is totally incredible how good they get! Riley had a few solos and did a really great job!



Mrs. Cella had life-sized photos of all the kids as part of the decor



one of the many costumes


heavy concentration


Typical Photo of Riley
(I mean her nickname is "Smiley" Riley...what on earth)



I love that she was not afraid to sing

great job riley! and i'm with you - judy ROCKS! you're so lucky that you got your baby into her class before she retired. she will be missed.

ps the year that taylor and micah were in her class i was in charge of making GIANT notes on wooden dowels with huge photos of their faces on them. those giant photos gave me flash backs to what a pain that was! :)

This is my very favorite program to go to! Mrs Cella amazes me! I am sad to see her retire. All my kids loved learning how to play the ukulele.........a once in a lifetime experience for them!

Riley looks so cute!
