🎻✨ District String Festival Success! ✨🎻
Last night our Advanced Orchestra traveled to the District String Festival — and we brought home TWO Superior ratings! 🏆🏆
For those who may not know how it works: students prepare three pieces and then perform them for a panel of judges who listen very carefully and offer detailed critiques. It is focused. It is intense. It is nerve-wracking.
And our students rose to the challenge beautifully.
We are beyond proud of their hard work, dedication, and courage to perform under pressure. They represented our school with excellence and heart, and this accomplishment is truly something to celebrate! 🎶👏
