🎶 It’s Fine Arts Friday! 🎨
Think a blended or virtual school means missing out on the music? Think again! 🎸🎤
We are cranking up the volume today to celebrate two of our favorite ways to get loud: our incredible Band and Choir programs! Whether you're a virtuoso in the making or just love to sing in the shower, there is a place for you here.
Check out how we’re making music:
🎺 Strike Up the Band
Led by the talented Mr. Matthew Hendrix, our Band class is proof that you can harmonize from anywhere!
Who: Grades 6–12
The Vibe: Interactive, high-energy, and a total blast.
🎙️ Find Your Voice
Join Mrs. Erica Hand in our Choir class to sharpen those vocal skills and connect with other singers!
Who: Grades 6–12
The Vibe: Engaging, fun, and super supportive.
Our students don't just "log in"—they perform, collaborate, and create awesome music together. If you’ve been looking for a creative outlet that fits your schedule, you just found it!
