"Use what talents you possess -- the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best." ~Henry Van Dyke
Make the most of every learning opportunity
Use kind words when speaking
Sing and play your best
Insist on being a "BIRD"
Cooperate for building a winning team

Be positive
Initiate an encouraging atmosphere
Respect the teacher, yourself, and other students
Do unto others as though you were the others

The Countdown Has Begun!

Welcome to 4th Quarter! As we start looking ahead to the end of the year, I want to encourage the students to keep practicing those instruments as we prepare for the spring concert in May. It's also a good time to refocus our energies into working together as a group so we can perform our best. In addition to our spring concert in May, the band and choir have been invited to provide the worship service at the Kennewick church on April 30. This performance will primarily contain music we performed on our tour. While only one local church performance is required per semester, students who participate in extra church performances will receive extra credit. Remember to take in a community concert for this semester if you have not yet done so. (Students in both band and choir will need one for each.) For those who don't want to look too far, the UCA Band/Choraliers will be presenting an assembly at the school on April 8. You won't want to miss it!
