Announcements:
A
few
weeks
ago
one
of
our
students
had
to
go
to
the
emergency
room
in
an
ambulance. We
were
unable
to
notify
the
parents
because
all
of
the
phone
numbers
in
our
computer
were
disconnected
or
incorrect.
If
you change jobs, get a new cell
phone or move homes, please
notify the office immediately and
let us know your new phone numbers. It
is very important that all your
contact information is current
so that we can contact you in
an emergency.

Our
music
department
has
been
very
active
this
year
and
will
be
so
right
up
to
the
end
of
school.
Here
are
some
of
the
highlights
of
our
performances
so
far:
We
have
hosted
two
festivals
at
the
school,
one
in
March
and
one
in
May.
At
the
March
festival,
our
Intermediate
and
Advanced
Orchestras
performed
and
did
quite
well.
In
May,
the
Advanced
Orchestra
earned
a
rating
of

the
Advanced

an

and
the

a
rating

Superior.
During
April,
three
of
our
groups
traveled
to
Colorado
and
participated
in
the
Breckenridge
Music
Festival.
The
Choir
and
Orchestra
earned
a
Superior
rating
and
the
Band
received
an
Excellent
rating.
When
we
weren't
performing,
the
students
and
chaperones
enjoyed
two
days
of
skiing
and
other
snow-related
activities
(and
yes,
it
snowed
while
we
were
there!).
On
June
7,
the
Wind
Ensemble
will
perform
on
board
the

Midway

carrier
museum
along

from
schools
in
the
San
Diego
Unified
District.
Our
performance
time
is

noon.
We
