Hello parents and students,
This week we performed at the annual Fine Arts Festival at the high school. We so appreciate your cooperation with that concert being rescheduled after it was canceled on Tuesday. The event was a huge success and the combined middle school band was HUGE! Our next big concert is on May 10th and will feature the 7th grade band as well as the 8th grade band. They will each be performing four to five pieces, and awards will also be presented to individual students at the end, such as “most improved,” and “Director’s Choice.”
Since the beginning of this semester, I have seen these students begin to grow into fine young players and band members. They have shown that they can work hard, take instruction, and I have even seen increasing enthusiasm for playing and continuing band into high school. Please keep encouraging your kids to come to band every day with a willingness to learn and to become a little better or a musician, after all it is much more fun to play your instrument when you are good at it 🙂
Have a wonderful weekend!
