Mrs. Palmer - Retirement
If you have not heard, Mrs. Palmer is retiring at the end of this school year after 32 years of service in Easton. She expressed to me that she didn't want anything special, but she has meant so much to so many people that we need to make her last concert one to remember. Mrs. Nancy Ebert, a former band mom, came up with the idea of "filling the auditorium". I think that is a perfect idea. It would be awesome to fill all 1750 seats! I know she has been sharing the word as well. Please share this information with your child, have them share with their friends, spread the word. It would be awesome if we could have students from her early days as well. However all are invited including parents.
I would like to create a memory book/video for her as well. I am attaching a google form that has some questions and has the ability for you to upload any photos or videos that you may have of Mrs. Palmer or the band. Pass the link along to anyone you know had her, the more the merrier!
https://forms.gle/eE4563W8ur7TieWJ7
If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to email me. Let's make her last concert her most memorable--and lets keep it a secret. I would love to see her face when she sees a full house.
