7th and 8th Grade Updates

Hello 7th and 8th Grade Parents,

Our Pre-LGPE concert is tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7pm. Please have your child at Durham by 6:30pm for sign-in and tuning. 8th Grade will perform first. 7th grade Parents, you will find this concert to be very informative and helpful in understanding the LGPE process. :)

Also, McEachern's Orchestra is doing an awesome thing in helping provide lunch the day of LGPE. Your child should bring in $8 BY THE END OF THIS WEEK to the safe if they would like to purchase a Chick Fil A lunch, which includes a CFA sandwich, chips, cookie, and water bottle. If your child does not want to order a CFA lunch, they should bring a lunch the day of LGPE. (March 12 for 7th Grade, March 13th for 8th Grade). Tomorrow night's program will have detailed information on those specific dates and times. 

We also need chaperones for March 12 (7th Grade) and March 13 (8th Grade). If you can chaperone, please email me back and let me know! 

Thank you all for your support!!

8th Grade Annoucements

Dear 8th grade parents,

Your child will be receiving their playing test assignment today as we prepare for LGPE. Your child's playing test is on specified measures of "M to the Third Power," which is the most challenging piece on their program. Please make sure they are practicing this at home or coming in for early morning practice to work on this! They will record this test on Charms, due Friday, February 16 (right before Feb break!). 

Students auditioning for Honor Orchestra: don't forget that auditions are this Saturday at Dodgen!

The final Disney payment was actually due last week (oops!). It is only $25. Please check your accounts to ensure that you have paid $725 if your child is going to Disney. We are so looking forward to their trip.

Please also make sure you have Tuesday, February 27th on your calendar, which is their Pre-LGPE concert at Durham at 7pm. The dress is casual for this preview concert and 8th grade will perform first.

Thank you all for your continued support!
