Important message for all K-12th grade parents about our upcoming Winter Music Program. Due to the current Covid-19 situation and the DHM guidelines, we will not be able to perform an in person evening music program on December 15th as scheduled on the calendar. This decision breaks our hearts but with the strict guidelines in place we need to keep everyone safe and follow those DHM's. Our alternate plan is to record the program and have it uploaded to our YouTube channel for families to enjoy. Information has been sent home with your student. Please have your student dress in "concert" attire the day of their recording. Reminders will be sent out via our website, app and social media pages when the recording date approaches. Once again, the music program will not take place in person the evening of December 15. We apologize for any inconveniences. Thank you! Thank you.
