Family had a great time at CHS's 'Oz'
I would like to extend a huge thank you to the Carson High Performing Arts program for their wonderful rendition of "The Wizard of Oz." My children and I attended the last showing on Sunday, and were blown away by the acting, singing, music, costumes, scenery, and overall professionalism of the show. We had a blast, and it looked like everyone in the show did as well. Great job.
