Turning Tassels, Ballroom Dance Finals and School's out for Summer

Happy Last Day of School

5 Things feels like it was just yesterday that we were reporting on snow days and Winter Concerts. Yet, here we are Pelham kids, in just a few short hours, school will be out for summer. Enjoy it.

Cheer on Hutch at the Ballroom Dance Finals

After a year of stiff competitions around the tri-state area, the Hutchinson ballroom dance troupe will hit the finals at the Winter Garden in Manhattan on Saturday at 4 p.m. Hutch faces off against the other eight top schools in New York and will be the sole Westchester school representing.

Congrats, Graduates!

Come Saturday morning, the Pelham Memorial High School class of 2011 will celebrate their years of learning here and will bid this campus farewell after crossing the stage and turning their tassels. Patch will be there front and center, capturing those moments that make mom proud. Check in on Sunday for our story and photo slideshow.

If Saturday ushers in showers and thunderstorms, those are slated to arrive mainly after noon and we’ll have a toasty high of 83 degrees.
