  On Aug. 17, the school flag raising ceremony included special guest Jason Mraz, who sang two songs, “I’m Yours,” and “Have It All,” which includes a positive message for children and adults. Mraz was in town for a concert at Daily’s Place this evening and, after sharing his songs during the flag raising, visited the classrooms.
