AVALON — This year Avalon Elementary School put on a fabulous and entertaining rendition of The Wizard of Oz, Jr. Lena Dougherty played Dorothy and her sister Bryn played Toto. The other leads were 8th grader Connor Schiela as the Tin Man, 7th graders, Abigail Cherry and Jenna DiPasquale as the Scarecrow and the Lion. Ashley Ohntrup was the beautiful Glinda and Nynoshka Vasquez played the ferocious Wicked Witch.

The Stone Harbor Choir (grades 2nd-4th) participated as the Munchkins.
The students look forward to next year’s spring production!
