A Message from Mr. Fox...
Hello everyone!
I wanted to thank all of the families who made their way to one or both of our holiday concerts this week! The turnout at both the Band and Choir Concert on Tuesday night and the Elementary Christmas Program on Wednesday night was unbelievable. The amount of support that the music program receives here at St. Anthony of Padua is incredible. I am truly blessed to work with these young musicians every day.
I am proud of the students for all their preparation for the Christmas performances this week! It is clear that the students were not only taking the time to practice in class but also at recess, lunch, home, etc. All the students worked incredibly hard to put on a great show, and I couldn’t be happier with the end result!
I hope that everyone has a wonderful holiday season, and I’m looking forward to seeing all the students when we come back in January!
Musically Yours,
Matthew Fox
Music Teacher
