GREAT YEAR........lots of cool stuff going on in K-8 RCS MUSIC! General
music classes are busy studying music history, learning how to read and play
rhythms, singing seasonal songs, and playing a variety of instruments, with
an occasional ROCK BAND 2 diversion! Never a dull moment...
THANKS TO ALL for your participation in NORTH POLE RADIO HOUR! It was a fun
addition to our holiday season this year---THANK YOU parents and students
for "going the distance" on our extra-curricular rehearsals and
performances. Your students are learning about self-discipline and what
putting together a big project like that entails, about working with others,
communication and listening as well as, of course, all of the
musical and technical lessons for the actual performance. LIFE LESSONS:
that's what school is all about!!
TALENT SHOW '10 will be THURSDAY MARCH 4th @ 7:00 P.M.during MUSIC IN OUR
SCHOOLS MONTH! AUDITIONS will be Thursday February 4th AFTER SCHOOL. START
GETTING READY...this year's show will have only 2 categories: GROUP CATEGORY

SPRING SEASON is shaping up to be a great time of musical opportunities! RCS
SINGERS will begin after Christmas to work on some fun AND meaningful music

to create interest in and understanding of music in our world...and to
discover the JOY OF MUSIC!
