Dear band and orchestra students and parents,
I am looking forward to seeing your progress this week and I have really enjoyed meeting with you!
Don't forget to enter your practice time on the practice log during class time on the day you are not meeting with me. You will find the log entry form on Google Classroom.
2. Unfortunately the Florida Trip committee and I have decided postpone our Florida Disney trip to the spring of 2022. It is a hard decision and one that I hoped I wouldn't have to make. There is much advanced planning and opportunities for student fundraising that go into a trip like this and it has become increasingly difficult to make these plans with so much uncertainty. If you had sent a check in to pay for all or a portion of your trip cost you should have received a check to refund this amount. All fundraised money will be carried forward for students that will be able to attend in 2022.
3. Congratulations to Holland Christian High School senior percussionist Paul Quinn and sophomore violist Ella Vanden Berg who have earned positions in the High School All State Band and Orchestra.
Nearly 1500 students in the state of Michigan auditioned for a spot in these prestigious ensembles. The Michigan School Band and Orchestra Association conducted virtual auditions this year and winners were selected by a panel of 25 judges. Special recognition goes to Paul who was selected as the first chair percussionist, the top position in the MSBOA All State Band. Congratulations to Paul and Ella!
