SPAC is excited to report that six of our very own SPAC students made it through the grueling audition in NYC and were one of the highlights of the show. These students include: Khandice Dyson, Ally Fahey, Dustin Knopoff, Ivory McCulley, Jackie Paasman & Richard Westfahl. CONGRATULATIONS! You Rock!
