Sayre Area School District

Last weekends production of Guys and Dolls was a huge success. So many in our community came out to enjoy the show. The students were outstanding. We will miss seeing some of our senior stars of the stage but they left us with a show worth remembering. All the students involved put so much time and work into making the show a success and we are so proud of you. Thank you to our producers Ms. Wentzel and Ms. Ackerman and to every community member in the pit orchestra. You really brought the atmosphere up with your beautiful music. The musical arts are thriving at SASD!
