Broncho Orchestra January 23, 2023

Hey Orchestra!

Apologies for the late update. This week - I spent Friday and Saturday in Abilene with our Harp program and All-Region violinist Luis T.! The All-Region Orchestras had a wonderful performance.

A few important reminders:

Assignments in Schoology

The Playing Assignments (which are test grades!) are up in Schoology. Please log in, check the due dates, and take care of them in a prompt manner. The first one is due this coming weekend! (1/29)

Contest Season!

Please remember that rehearsals and sectionals are mandatory and part of your grade! This calendar was distributed last fall so everyone had a chance to make accommodations. Check this weeks schedule below.

Solo & Ensemble

If you’re signed up for Solo & Ensemble, you should have been practicing over the break! Our accompanist will be meeting with us on January 23rd and 26th in class. I’ll have the cost soon. Please be practicing!

Spring Trip

If you’re attending the spring trip, please make sure you’re staying caught up on payments via your Green Light login. Please let me know if you have any questions.
