Cowboy Clint and his cow Lily bring the farm to WMS at rodeo time.

Students from Westside Montessori School were filled with delight,
laughter and excitement during the performance of The Carnival of
Animals. Performers with Young Audience's of Houston recently visited
Westside Montessori and brought to life the story, The Carnival of
Animals, through pantomime and music. The young students, pre-schoolers
through third graders, were thoroughly entertained and amused.
