Dear Families,
I know some parents are at work donating or collecting donations of white shirts for Wednesday's concerts. I realized this morning that I have a collection of 6 white shirts--all cleaned and pressed--that I used to wear at one restaurant job, and now I have a completely different set of shirts for my current restaurant. Rather than donating the first set to Good Cheer, I will bring them to school to be available for the concert. They will obviously be too big for some of the students, but they remain as an option if no other methods of acquiring white shirts or sweaters or tops are working for your family.
The ensembles are all coming together. The material challenges the students in very different ways--some are chomping at the bit for even more challenge, while others express some anxiety. I have tried to let students know that the ensemble can still sound strong even if an individual misses a note here or there or has to sit out a section. I guess my message is: worry not.
