Disney

We are so excited for 2017 and the upcoming Disney Trip!  We want to put out a final call for those who may want to sign up as chaperones. We could still use some, and there have been several parents who have spoken to us about it, but never signed up. If you are interested in being a chaperone, please let us know by the end of December. You can contact Mrs. Culbertson by email stasi.culbertson@centerburgschools.org. We need to have it all finalized so that we can make the last preparations.  Merry Christmas and we'll see you in the New Year! When we come back we will only have 63 days of school until the trip! 

Happy Vacae!

Happy Holidays Everyone! Congrats to the high school, elementary and 6th grade bands, choirs and Orff Ensemble for some super-dee-duper holiday concert performances!   Please don't forget that the 7th and 8th grade band and choir concert is tonight;  (Tuesday, Dec. 20th)  Students should arrive by 6:30 PM and PLEASE bring-in a baked good for our annual holiday bake sale! High School Band :  PLEASE remember that your performance tests are due on Google Classroom BY Friday, Jan 6th.  Please don't wait 'till the last minute.  Do it NOW!  You must see the High School Band Google Classroom page to register and view the assignment!  ( Scale sheets and sight-reading has already been distributed ). While you should try to record your playing test either as an audio or a video and attach it to Google Classroom , I can hear you play "live" if you'd like.  If that is the case, you will need to let me know when you will come to the band office to be heard!

Attention: UPDATE!

Concert Update: Due to the inclement weather, the 7th and 8th Grade Concert was cancelled last evening, but has been re-scheduled for next Tuesday, December 20th .  Same time, same schedule! If you are the parent of a 7th or 8th grade band or choir student we kindly ask you to mark your calendar, changing-around your schedules as best you can so your child may attend.  Thank you!
