A Message from the Director – April 4, 2020

by Apr 5, 2020Ensembles, News, Parents, Students

Dear Students, Parents, Guardians, Friends, and Families,

As you well know, in the past couple of weeks has left the world of music education (and education in general) upended by the COVID-19 pandemic. Canceled concerts, trips, and entire seasons have left a large swath of sad, confused, and worried students and parents in its wake.

And they are not alone.

Entire families are facing questions related to health, security, and economic uncertainty. And as much as they might try to shield it from their families, the angst can’t help but unknowingly pass through the house, much like the virus that brought it about.

As we roll into our break on remote learning please continue to support each other on a daily basis.  While we are not able to see each other in a daily basis please know that we are here for one another and will support you in any way that we can.  I encourage you to spread a little fun and joy to those you are closest to as we go through the coming week.
