🎶 Spring Concert Series 🎶
Yesterday was the last of our Spring Concert Series. Middle school concerts give students in band, orchestra, and choir the opportunity to showcase the skills they have worked hard to develop throughout the year. These performances build confidence, encourage teamwork, and allow families and friends to celebrate the students’ musical growth and dedication.
NJHS Induction Ceremony
Congratulations to those who were inducted into National Junior Honor Society this week. NJHS was founded in 1929 with the purpose of creating enthusiasm for scholarship, stimulating a desire to render service, promoting leadership, encouraging responsible citizenship, and developing character in secondary school students. Members from this school year completed over 1,900 service hours over the course of the year. We congratulate them on their accomplishments.
