-Happy holidays.

Thank you so much for joining us for this very special episode of Student Spotlight.

I'm your host, Maria Silva.

And without a doubt, it is the most wonderful time of the year.

Each holiday season, we invite musical groups from around the Clark County School District here to our Vegas PBS studios to perform just for you.

So sit back, relax.

Hey, even put on your silly holiday sweaters.

Check this out.

A cat with a Santa hat?

And it even lights up.

Grab your hot cocoa and get ready for an incredible half hour of festive music.
