Christmas Tree and Wreath Sale at Foss Park Pool!

Next Wave Junior High School and Full Circle High School are Somerville's alternative, moderate special needs schools. Both are designed to meet the special academic, social, emotional, and behavioral needs of adolescents and teens who, for many reasons, have experienced failure in the traditional education settings.

More information can be found at the Next Wave/Full Circle Site.

And, from their site:

The annual Next Wave and Full Circle Christmas Tree and Wreath Fundraiser began on Wednesday, December 2nd at 4:00 PM. Live, fresh wreaths for $15 and live trees ranging in price from $19 to $49 are for sale in the tree lot, located near the DCR pool at Foss Park (corner of Broadway and McGrath Highway). The Lot is staffed by Full Circle and Next Wave student leaders Monday-Friday from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM and on the weekends from 10:00 AM t0 8:00 PM through December 21st. Net proceeds benefit the school community at Next Wave and Full Circle.

Get that Christmas spirit on! And here's a little help from Rose Polenzani & Rose Cousins, recorded in Somerville, MA on December 2, 2008.
