April 17th

Hello Everyone!

We have been asked to perform at the first ever elementary Showcase of Excellence April 17th at Archbishop Wood HS! This is a Archdiocesan event that highlights all the amazing things going on in our elementary schools! We don't have an official time yet but we will be performing some time between 4pm-7pm (I'm gonna ask to be at the end if possible) Please fill out this form to let me know if you can make it, we can only do it if we have enough people to cover parts. This would be a GREAT place to showcase the amazing job your kids have done this year. Please do all you can to attend!

VJM Jazz fest music

Hello Everyone, 
I was hoping to find a way to schedule a rehearsal before Saturdays competition however I have been unable to find a suitable time and location close enough to VJM. So, that means we will be going into this festival without any extra practice. The main problem with that is we have been asked to perform 4 songs (1 warmup and 3 to be judged) Please have your students ready to play Girl from Ipanema as that will be our warmup. It is crucial that everyone comes prepared please have your students take time on this lovely snow day to practice along with the link posted above. 

We will meet at VJM at 6pm on Saturday, dress code is the same as last weekend. Stay warm and stay safe!

-Mr. Myers
