Directors Note
Director's note:
We have 3 weeks until the Fall Concert make sure you're all bringing home your instruments to practice. In class rehearsal is not enough to have the pieces well prepared for the audience. Make sure you're working diligently at home as well. We're still missing many students school instrument rental fee. Its really important to get fees turned in so the orchestra can run smoothly.
Keep up the good work!
