ORCHESTA RECRUITMENT FOR 2ND GRADERS (GOING INTO 3RD GRADE)
Calling all 2nd grade musicians!
Over the next few weeks, every current 2nd grader will get the chance to hear a performance by members of our school orchestra AND try each of the instruments offered in our orchestra program: Violin, Viola, Cello, and Bass. Nearly 1,000 children across D303 elementary schools are involved in our elementary orchestra program!
If your child is interested in joining us, please mark your calendar for our NEW Orchestra Parent Information meeting! At the virtual meeting, you will meet your orchestra director, learn details about the program, how to register, and how to rent an instrument. Each meeting will present the same information, so please join us when you can. We look forward to meeting with you. Please join us for one of these meetings:

Families,
You are all invited to come to Anderson for our Family Picnic on Friday May 19th. As you can see below each grade level will be eating outside at a different time. Students can bring a lunch from home, order from the school cafeteria, or eat the picnic lunch you bring them.
Families are encouraged to bring a blanket, (camping chairs if you prefer) and what ever food you need to enjoy a picnic with your child. Students are able to eat with their friend's families and teachers.
