This past weekend, 12 of our 4th grade students had the opportunity to participate in the Pittsburgh Youth Chorus's Singing Saturday at Mt. Lebanon High School. We've spent the month of February preparing and learning the music for the performance, and on Saturday, March 7, they spent the day with guest conductor, Steve Schmidt, and other 4th and 5th graders from all around the Pittsburgh area practicing for a wonderful performance! They did a fantastic job and represented our district well! Participating Students: CSE: Ava Anderson, Brooke Weiler, and Tyrion Williams Evergreen: Edward Koruzo, Alexis Nelko, and Ryeon Wormsley Ramsey: Izabelle Bansah, Rachel Tanis, and Lauren Vandervort UP: Mirai Graylee, Sanvi Jain, and Joshitha Vijayakumar Congratulations everyone!

Students do not need to “dress up” for the “dress rehearsal!” Concert Dress is white and black dressy clothes. Boys: White or black collared shirt, black dress pants, black belt, black socks and black shoes. Girls: White or black blouse, black pants or skirt, (or a black and white dress), black shoes. *If your child is unable to wear the clothing described above, please have them wear something as close as possible. Parking for Rehearsals at GHS: For the rehearsals at Gateway High School Band Room, parents/guardians can park in the student lot next to the football field. The entrance to the band room is behind the auditorium, facing the football field and next to the upper stadium entrance. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns about our rehearsals and concert. Thank You Very Much, Dave Verno - [email protected] Sean McMasters - [email protected] |
