Week Nine postings

Dear Parents and Scholars,

We have one more week before Fall break, a well-deserved chance to rest, reflect and reboot. This week, we learned about the value of silence and its impact on music.  One of my favorite quotes is "Next to silence, the best means of expression is music," by an anonymous author. In our busy lives, we often take silence for granted. Have you ever noticed how peaceful everything is when there is silence? It's interesting that the name of the symbol in music that indicates a certain duration of silence is called a rest!

Over break, I will be adding more lyrics to the performance songs and hope to have a definite time for the concerts in December.

In the meantime, I do have more forms for students who are wanting to join music club and will give those forms to them on Monday. Currently, it is not possible to access forms online, so our secretary has helped me with obtaining more. Forms will simply need to have a check attached or credit card information and should be given to the secretary before the end of the week.

As always, thank you for sharing your students,

Dr. Janet Norman
