Weekly Instrumental Update

Hello Musical Community,

What an exciting and short week ahead. After several weeks of preparation the Veterans Day Assemblies are upon us. Students are very much looking forward to treating our guests and the rest of the student body to a program filled with patriotic melodies in commemoration of the time our veterans spent on our behalf.

Last week all students in the music department received their ad book sales packet and their cheese cake sales packet. They should be out working to fund their trip and support the Music Sponsors.

This Saturday Jim Sit and Elliot Louthen will be performing at the District 1 IMEA Jazz Festival. This year's festival will be held at Lyons Township High School (south campus), this is a change from what is in the blue student handbook. Congratulations Jim and Elliot!

Also congratulations to instrumentalists Coleen Fruin, Dovas Lietuvninkas, Corey Reynolds, Nathan Smith, Aimee Patterson, and Alex Paterson and the rest of the cast and crew who had a terrific run with this year's fall play, The Murder Room!

We look forward to seeing you at Parent Teacher Conferences!

Musically Yours,
Mr. Baum and Mr. McOlgan
