Spaghetti and Song

catherine barr

ON Thursday, May 23, the Carson Graham Music Department held their annual "Spaghetti and Song" evening of music. Choral director Janet Warren's senior choirs and band director Steve Woodyard's senior bands entertained friends, students and guests in the school's gym which was had been magically transformed into a very authentic Italian grotto (thanks, largely, to the art department students and their teacher, Diane Farey). Lots of Italian food, and of course spaghetti, was prepared and served by students who take part in the school's professional chef training and food services program. An excellent evening for all.
