THE ADDAMS FAMILY, a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and it’s every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family–a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before–keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.
Fresh air and exercise are so important during our day! Please make sure your learners bring appropriate gear to school as the temperatures are dropping! Please let your child's teacher know if you need assistance finding winter items.
Check out our DP Weekly Announcements! There is now a tab on the Dakota Prairie homepage and we also have these showing in our lunchroom at school!
