Dear Parents,
This past month has been very eventful with our music trip to San Antonio last week. We had a successful performance at the Heritage Festival being awarded a national ranking of Silver. This past weekend we also had three students make it to Arizona All-State Festival.
Band/Percussion
Amber Ferguson, Senior Flute
Mo Casorla, Junior Oboe
Phillip Castro, Junior Percussion
Students should be working on the music for our Spring Arts Concert – Fantasy on a Japanese Folk Song, Florentiner March, Havendance in the band, Then Pulp Friction and On Fire with with the Percussion Ensemble.
May 3rd this year will include our Spring Arts Concert and awards night. In the past we have had this as two separate events and both nights can feel long. This year we will hold the events on the same night to try something different.
