Band festival!
Wow! What a field trip! The 7th grade band students were gone all day last Friday rehearsing with 100 other middle school students on 4 pieces that we brought with us. They worked with guest conductors to rehearse the pieces and those conductors heard us as a group of 17 perform 2 pieces that we brought with us. At the end of the day, we had a concert that a lot of parents were able to attend. I really enjoy giving this experience to the students since they can be part of a large group, hear instruments that we don't have in our group, and work with other middle schoolers from other schools. I can't wait to participate in this event next year!
Thanks to the drivers as well as the two parents who stayed all day! Mrs. Prescott and Mrs. Sandstrom made sure that I was eating and drinking all day!
