The culmination of a day filled with music and collaboration was a magnificent evening concert. Deer Path Middle School 6th, 7th, and 8th graders joined forces with our high school musicians for rehearsals led by Mr. Bassill and Mr. Green, our guest conductor. We are incredibly grateful to Applause for providing a pizza lunch to fuel our musicians and for their generous grant that made the guest conductor's visit possible. Despite a fast-paced day, the students remained enthusiastic throughout! Mr. Green commented they were a joy to work with, and he was impressed with their playing. The final performance was a testament to the dedication and talent of our students!
