Schools to exhibit their best in Showcase 2013

Showcase 2013, presented by the Homewood City Schools Foundation, will be held Tuesday, March 12 at 6 p.m. at Homewood Middle School.

This annual event, which is open to the public, brings the Homewood community, parents, teachers and students together for one night to celebrate what makes the school system so special.

The evening begins with a performance by the Homewood City Schools’ Percussion Spectacular, made up of 150 students from all five schools. Following this musical presentation, parents can become students as students become teachers during a host of hands-on demonstrations in art, math and science led by Homewood faculty.

“Showcase 2013 gives parents and students chance to see and experience the programs and activities taking place at the other Homewood schools,” said Ashley Condon, board president of Homewood City Schools Foundation. “This exposure brings a real sense of excitement and appreciation for all that our school system has to offer. It’s truly a celebration.”
