1st Grade Christmas Program VIDEO #3 - Bruce Springsteen's version of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town"

Well, at this point of the program, we had totally blown the parent's minds and they started to realize that this was not going to be your "normal" first grade program.

I sing this song with the first graders every year.  However, this year it turned out the best because I turned the mike on unsuspecting kids and they helped me sing all the way through.  There were many, many moments of hilarity.

This song also features the dancing of two giggly 6th grade students that were running our projector for us. It just added to the controlled chaos and hilarity.  They make their appearance in the middle of the song.

So here I am, Cheeseboy, singing WITH the first graders.  Be sure to hang on to the end.  That last kid's note is a doozy!

ALSO: If you have not yet watched the other two videos I have put up from this unique program, they are right below this one.  I implore you to watch them!

    Yup! He nailed it! Good job, Cheeseboy! Those first graders are mighty fortunate to have you as their teacher/mentor!

    This is so good!
    Did you have to pay the 6th grade students?
    Please, tell me that all of those children are not in one class...
    I once had 39 sixth graders in one room for an entire school year!
    All but two had perfect attendance that year!!!

    I think this one was my favorite. Does your principal laugh at you, or just shake his/her head at you?

    This is AMAZING! I've got five kids and some grandkids, so you know I've seen WAY MORE than my share of these things. This is by far the best Christmas program that I've either seen or heard of.
    What makes it even more amazing is that there are so many younger kids involved. I think they need to change the name of that school to "Blog O' Cheese Elementary."

    Seriously, the time and work you put into this is serious. Proud of you buddy!
