Winter Concert Series: 3rd, 4th, and 5th Graders Shine!
Our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders filled the stage with music, energy, and joy as part of the Winter Concert Series!
The evening featured performances by the 4th and 5th Grade Band, 5th Grade Choir, and a combined 3rd–5th Grade ensemble, showcasing a wide range of pieces—from traditional favorites like Ring Bells (Kling, Glöckchen) and The Dreidel Song to global selections such as Kuwa Furaha (Be Joy) and Si Me Dan Pasteles. Students also performed "Snow Day," a special piece with lyrics written by class members.
Bravo to all of our young musicians for their focus, teamwork, and enthusiasm, and thank you to our faculty, families, and supporters for making this joyful celebration of music possible!
