MESSAGE: May 23, 2005 |
In with the New
I spent most of last week at Neil Cummins meeting the students
and parents that will be next year’s sixth grade class. It
was a great opportunity for me to get to know, albeit very briefly,
many of the students who will be joining us next year. The incoming
sixth graders impressed me with their questions and their eagerness
to come to Hall. I know our current sixth and seventh grade students
will welcome them to the Hall community. I look forward to working
with our new students and their families for the next three year.
The Auction Glow
Last week’s Foundation Auction was an amazing experience.
I love the way the auction brings the community together in support
of the schools. The Hall teachers were out in force at the auction,
serving beverages and socializing. We were all impressed and touched
by the outpouring of support that came from our parents and local
businesses. Your generosity and support mean so much to the teachers.
I know the teachers who attended truly felt supported by everyone
at the event.

Hall Spring Music Concert: An Old-Fashioned
Concert in the Park
Thursday, May 26, 7:30pm • Hall gym
The Hall Music Department presents “An Old-Fashioned
Concert in the Park!” featuring the Intermediate Band and Advanced
Band, plus the new Cougar Choir and the debut of the “Jazz Cats”
jazz band! It all happens this Thursday evening at 7:30pm
in the Hall Gym.
We invite you to take a musical journey back to a time when families
and friends gathered together on an afternoon to picnic and enjoy
the sounds of the town band. Our stage and environs will be transformed
into a beautiful Victorian gazebo, complete with flora and greenery,
thanks to the set design talents and imagination of Eladia Leddy,
parent and creative artist.
The program will offer a wide variety of music including music
from the Baroque era to the Broadway stage and the silver screen. You’ll
get to “Meet the Band” as we spotlight the various sections
of the ensemble: “TWA (Trumpets with Attitude!),” “Flute
Flirtations,” “Cool Blues for Saxophones,” “Mallet
Mania” (percussion feature)
and “Trumpet Voluntary.”
The Advanced Band will pay tribute to its graduating eighth grade
musicians by featuring solos by Claire, Jonathan
and Kara. (Claire will also be our special guest
conductor for “Trumpet Voluntary.”) Not to be
outdone, the Cougar Choir will feature a number of soloists on
its selections, the popular “The Time of Your Life,” Irving
Berlin’s “Alexander's
Ragtime Band” and everyone’s Broadway favorite, “Do, Re, Me” from
“The Sound of Music.” We hope you and your family
will join us this Thursday evening at 7:30pm.
