What a wonderful week! I had the opportunity to see a beautiful performance of "Les Mis, the School Edition" featuring our alumni, Alyssa Moriello last Saturday in Schaumburg. She has two more performances, tonight and tomorrow. See below for more information. On Monday evening, we have an online Vocal Parents Meeting to discuss volunteer needs for the musical. Later this week, our band students will be performing at the Band Solo & Ensemble Night.

In support of our many Band musical cast members

the Leads' Rehearsal will be from 3:00 - 4:00 on THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6.

On Friday, February 7, paint crew will continue to paint until 6:00. Parents are most welcome to join us in painting the sets.

Starting Tuesday, February 18, we need Parent Volunteers to supervise the Backstage Hallway and Costume Racks at each rehearsal, Sign-Up below!

The Maine East Production of "Matilda," featuring some of our middle school students, is rapidly approaching. Get your tickets soon!

Have an amazing weekend!

🎸Notes about the Music Classes🥁 🎸Notes about the Music Classes🥁

Vocal Power students rocked their songs from the Rock Unit! Music 6 continued the Harmony Unit, developing their ukulele skills. They also started their Mash-Up project. They are selecting two songs with common key signatures, tempos, meters, and styles to weave together, creating a new song. Stay tuned for examples of their compositions. The Musical Theatre Workshop Classes are off book! Show Choir and 7/8 Singers met this week before school. Thank you to the incredible singers who rehearsed this week!
