Best part of my week Von Steuben MSC is when I get to celebrate our amazing students who win rewards for showing #VonPRIDE!

They did it again! The BOYCP Choir put together an amazing performance. “Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812” was incredible. #onthebroadwayblock #nailedit #bobcatpride
