Important update today with information on several of our upcoming performances!
Hart's Alive This is an exciting performance on May 11 where we get to showcase our the performing groups at Hart as part of the night's activities. The 7th Grade band will start the night at 7PM and the 8th Grade will immediately follow. After the bands play, Hart's outstanding choirs will perform. Chamber Music Night ALL students will be participating in a small ensemble as part of our first ever Chamber Music Night on May 20! This event is a collaboration between our students at Hart and Stoney Creek's band students. In fact, many of the pieces our students will be performing were written by SCHS students! The event will go from 5-8 at Rochester City Park. A more detailed schedule will be made available as students finalize music choices and we can start planning when individual groups will play. 6th Grade The 6th Grade concert will be held on May 19 at Hart. Students have all of their music and have been working hard. Please encourage them to keep up with all work assigned in preparation for this performance! 7th Grade We will be performing at Hart's Alive on May 11 and our Spring Concert on May 12. 8th Grade State Festival information was finally released on Friday! We play at 12:55 on April 30 at Sterling Heights High School. Permission slips and letters with a more detailed timeline will be coming home ASAP. Please remind your student to get the letter home and return the permission slip. We lose two days this week to MSTEP and one more the week after, so there's less time to remind them to get things handed in. We've arrived at Marking Period 4! It's definitely a sprint to the finish from here, so make sure those calendars are marked.
