Happy New Year!!! Thank you to all who brought me some delicious homemade baked goodies for Christmas. My family and friends enjoyed them!
Well, with a new year comes some new changes!
Unfortunately, a sad change is that we will not be having a musical in the Spring. We simply did not have enough people sign up to be in the show. I'll try again next year!
Now, since I will not be having musical rehearsals after school, I am moving some of the after school rehearsals to 8th period. Here is the Rehearsal schedule for 2nd semester;
Monday - 8th period - Beginning Band
Tuesday - 7:30 a.m. - Steel Drums
8th period - Beginning Strings
Wednesday - 8th period - Advance Strings
Thursday - 7:30 a.m. - Chimes
8th period - Beginning Band
Friday - 8th period - Advanced Band
ALL OF THESE REHEARSALS WILL BEGIN NEXT WEEK.......... I have Jury Duty beginning on Tuesday and do not know if I will have to be there all week or just one day.
This gives everyone a change to dig out that instrument, dust it off and start practicing!!!!
