Congratulations on a great performance. 7th, 6th, and selected 5th grade musicians who have never performed together demonstrated that they can not only work with others, but function well as a team of musicians with those they don't even know. Principal Dr. Wong was very pleased and proud of your performance as was the Superintendent of the whole district Dr. Virginia McElyea. Excellent job!
