Tom Sawyer

 One of the many things for which I am grateful is that my children attend an elementary school that is known for its invested and involved parents. One example: For the past 10 years, the Gleesons have spent hours each week from Jan-March working with over 100 4th-6th grade students to put on a school play that is magnificent and spectacular. In fact, they have been so committed that even when they haven't had a 4th, 5th, or 6th grader, they have still given their time to the tradition. Our son, Jaxson, benefited from their generosity and talent in this year's play, "Tom Sawyer."
