The Dubuque Schools Web Site was on hand with video camera running practically the whole time. Everywhere you looked... a Kodak moment.

You need RealPlayer (free from Real.com's Web site), to view multimedia on our Web site. It's worth the effort to install it. You may be prompted to download it when you click on the button.
