\n\tWhat an incredible celebration at our Mariachi for Moms event today!

A huge thank you to the talented Sam Houston High School Mariachi Tejano for sharing their amazing music and helping make the day so special. We were also so proud of our own sixth grade Strings students, who showcased their hard work and talent, and our energetic Cheer team, who brought so much spirit and excitement to the celebration!

Most importantly, thank you to all of the wonderful moms and mother figures who joined us. We loved celebrating you and creating special memories together. \t<\/span>\n\t... See More<\/span>See Less<\/span><\/a><\/span>\n<\/p>
