Students showcase projects and choir at Montville board meeting
Summary
Fourth‑grade students presented creative 'cereal box' book reports and the Lazar Chamber Choir performed a cappella pieces; board and superintendent praised participants and noted upcoming student events.
Fourth‑grade students from William Mason presented nontraditional 'cereal box' book reports during the May 1 Montville Board of Education meeting, describing plot, characters and themes to the board and audience. Students explained books including James and the Giant Peach, The One and Only Ivan and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows; teachers and the board praised their presentation skills and organized a group photo for district publicity.
The Lazar Chamber Choir, an auditioned seventh‑ and eighth‑grade ensemble, performed two concert pieces a cappella after the students' presentation. Choir director described rehearsals and logistics; board members publicly commended the group and thanked parents and staff for supporting arts programming.
The district noted a series of upcoming student events — spring concerts, awards nights, prom and senior activities — and said schedules will be published and families notified.
