Seguin ISD Fine Arts: March 1, 2021
Celebrating the 100th Day of School!
Seguin Fine Arts teachers have been presented with the #seguinfinearts 100th Day Challenge! By tweeting between 3/1 - 3/5, and sharing some of the successes achieved this year, teachers will be entered to win a $100 visa gift card. Successes shared might include the way students have overcome the challenges of the pandemic, the ways that SEL is being achieved in the classroom, or a particularly noteworthy lesson or performance. This week also marks the beginning of "Arts in Our Schools Month."

Bands and Choirs Prepare for UIL Evaluation
The SHS Band recently had a two day guest clinic refining UIL music and fundamentals. The students displayed a strong commitment to excellence and are sounding great! Several SHS Band students are also currently preparing for an upcoming UIL Solo & Ensemble contest.
The High School and Middle School choir staffs recently swapped roles for a day to rehearse each other's groups and further prepare for upcoming UIL. The #teamseguin collaboration between campuses is fantastic and student focused!
