In the Director's Corner
AP testing continues this week, Wind Ensemble auditions begin, Thursday is a BIG evening with meetings for everyone in the program, and…Prom is on Saturday. Whew! It's always a busy wrap up to the school year.
Not that you didn't read the information already, but I want to reinforce it one more time. We have our incoming student and parent meeting on Thursday at 5:30 pm followed by an important student and parent meeting at 6:30 pm for everyone currently in the program. We will invite the incoming families to stay for this important meeting. If you have friends and family members coming into the Sapphire Sound program, please share this information with them. Thank you!
Spring Pops Concert tickets are now on sale for the May 23rd concert at 6:30 pm. By purchasing tickets early, you will be able to get into the gym a little quicker in a dedicated line. Tickets are $10.
See you Thursday!
All In, Always.

Mrs. C
