Each December, the Glenholme community comes together for the annual holiday concert – a joyous occasion for students, family members, friends, and faculty in The Center for the Arts. This year’s concert - titled “Holiday Lights” - included solos, small group pieces, chorale numbers, and a spectacular selection of holiday songs performed by the full chorus.

Guests were greeted in the lobby by an ensemble of students dressed in old fashion caroling costumes. The carolers, conducted by Glenholme’s vocal instructor, sang several holiday favorites and provided a delightful introduction to the performance. During the concert, the audience enjoyed surprise visits by Santa and Mrs. Claus, who passed out candy to the audience, and Grandma, who somehow survived being run over by a reindeer! An audience sing-along favorite, “Jingle Bells,” brought the performance to an end with resounding applause and cheers.
In one of the most moving moments in Glenholme’s history, two students - Jessica and her close friend - sang the song “Temporary Home” to commemorate Jessica’s formal graduation from The Glenholme School. As she is the first in her family to receive a high school diploma, this is truly an incredible accomplishment. While Jessica performed for the last time on a Glenholme stage, a slide show played displaying her many happy moments at the school. Needless to say, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.
