First Percussion Ensemble Rehearsal

I would like to thank all 4th and 5th grade percussion ensemble members for attending the first percussion ensemble rehearsal.  Please review the rules and policies sheet with your parents.  The sheets should be signed and returned by Friday, September 18th, 2015.  Above is a video of "Trashin' It Up" to help you while practicing at home.  I look forward to working with the percussion ensemble this year.

First Chorus Rehearsal

I want to thank all of the chorus students who attended the first chorus rehearsal today.  You all sounded amazing. Please don't forget to sign the chorus rules and policies sheet and have your parents sign it as well.  The rule and policies sheet needs to be returned by the next chorus rehearsal on Friday, September 18th, 2015.   The videos for "There's Someone in the Chimney" and "Hip Hop Elves" by Teresa Jennings can be found below.  I look forward to seeing you all next week.
