20 of our grade 7 and 8 chorus students represented TBurg at the STMEA All-County Festival last weekend. They performed an impressive program including a piece by Mozart, a folk song from South Africa, and a gospel piece. We are so proud of their hard work!
As we head into the long weekend, here are a few more scenes of our fifth graders handling artifacts at the Johnson Museum and touring Uris Library. They had a great time. Stay warm everyone!
Today, while some of our 5th graders visited the Cornell campus and Johnson Museum, others were reading buddies in kindergarten classes. Thank you, 5th grade, for being great role models!
See you tonight!
