Charles Towne Montessori students to sing to children at MUSC

CHARLESTON, S.C., Dec. 11, 2007 - - More than a dozen elementary students from Charles Towne Montessori School will sing holiday songs 5:30 p.m. Wednesday to children in MUSC's Medically Fragile Children's Program in the Charleston Neck area.

A special Santa (North Charleston Mayor Keith Summey) is expected to be on hand to provide holiday cheer during a pizza party that follows. The music program and party will be held in the ARC Riverside A building on Evatt Drive near the old Baker Hospital. For directions, phone 876-7007.

"Our students have been preparing for weeks to sing to the children at MUSC," said Head of School Edward Jackson, who will direct the school's choir. "While they'll have fun singing Christmas carols, they're also learning about how important it is to give back to the community through these kinds of public service performances."
