Thank you to everyone who came out and supported the music department tonight! It filled out hearts to see so many community members in attendance to support our wonderful choir and band students. Merry Christmas from the Slater Music Department!
Tonight is the 5th-12th grade band and choir concert at 6 pm. The 5th-8th grade band students need to report to Mr. Meyer’s room at 5:20 pm to get their instruments and polos. The rest of the band and choir students need to report at 5:40 pm to get their instruments or polos for the concert. We have instructed the students to remain in the auditorium until the concert is completed so we may collect the 5th-8th grade students' polos after to be washed. Contact Stephen Meyer for choir questions and Hannah Bailey for band questions. We are excited to put on some great music programs for the community, so come out and support these wonderful musicians! Happy Holidays from the Music Department!
