Ice Cream Party

Our annual ice cream party in honor of our seniors will be held during class on Friday.  The orchestra will provide the ice cream, the students the toppings!  Please sign up on the spreadsheet on Google Classroom if you are able to supply any treats (no peanuts or tree nuts please). 

Live Music Opportunity

Great opportunity for students to get out and hear an evening of (FUN) live music!  Jeremy Green will be at the Music Shoppe Thursday, May 16th at 5:30 pm. Click here for samples from Jeremy's YouTube channel. Come out, support live music, and hear the world's coolest viola player!!!!

Nelson's Link

It appears that the Nelson's volunteer sign up link in the previous post wasn't working correctly when the email went out.  Please try this link to sign up for Wednesday the 15th to help with running meals.

Week of May 13th Updates

Our last sprint to the finish line begins this week!  There are many things we have left to do this week before we kick back and start to enjoy the carefree days of summer...

Monday May 13th Dress Rehearsal: there will be no rehearsal after school for any ensemble. Students should have instruments at home this weekend making that final push to the finish line!

Tuesday May 14th - Spring Concert (required event for all personnel)

Concert: 7:00 pm
Call Time:  6:00 pm
Dress:  Concert uniforms (senior girls ONLY may wear formal dresses; senior boys ONLY may wear orchestra tuxedo or suit and a white or colored shirt and colored tie).

Uniform Collection:
-ALL tuxedos must be turned in the night of the concert immediately following the performance (boys need to bring clothes to change into and turn in the complete uniform before leaving the building - completing this process is part of the concert grade.
-All SENIOR girls should bring their uniform dress (already laundered) to school on a hanger and turn in on Monday May 13th - completing this process is part of the concert grade.
-Any girl not signed up for orchestra next year must turn in their dress before leaving the building that night (bring clothes to change into) - completing this process is part of the concert grade. 
-All other girls who are signed up for orchestra next year should KEEP their dress, as it has been hemmed specifically for you.  You will be asked in the fall to try it back on and make sure it still fits.  If it does, you won't have to hem another one!

Concert Videographer
-We are in need of someone to push the play button on the school ipad to record our concert.  Please email Mrs. Siebenthal as soon as possible if you would be available to help us out with this.

Cookie Donations
-We are still in need of some more refreshment donations for our post concert celebration honoring our seniors.  You can click here for the Sign Up Genius link. 

Nelson's Dinner Volunteers
-We are also in need of student/parent volunteers to assist us with the Nelson's dinner fundraiser on Wed. May 15th.  Volunteers are needed from 4-6 pm to simply help collect tickets in the drive through and run meals out to the vehicles.  We really need to get this list filled in a hurry and would greatly appreciate your donation of a couple of hours of help! Click here to volunteer for a great cause.  Don't forget that if you ordered meals through the fundraiser that they can be picked up that day from 4-6 pm.

Spring Updates

The dress rehearsal on the calendar scheduled for Monday, May 6th (3:30-5:30 pm) will involve ALL orchestra seniors (regardless of what ensemble they are in) and ALL members of Chamber Orchestra.  

The sign up list for spring concert refreshments is now available.  In addition to those donations, we are also in need of people to help set up/work the table.  Best wishes to all students and parents as we come crashing into the end-of-the-year craziness!
