Dear Parents–
Our second concert of the year is just around the corner! Our 5-8 band and choir concert is Dec. 12th at 6:30 pm and 7:30 pm. The 5th and 6th graders will perform at 6:30. Please have your child arrive at the choir and band room by 6:15. The 7th and 8th graders will perform at 7:30 pm. They can arrive at the choir and band room by 7:15. We are asking all 5th and 6th graders to wear dress clothes to this concert. This includes dress pants, dress shirts, dresses, and skirts. If your child chooses to wear a skirt or a dress please make sure the hemline is below the knee. Shorter dresses and skirts do not work well while sitting on the stage. Dark black jeans are ok, but no blue jeans. The 7th and 8th grade girls are wearing all black dresses or black outfits. 7th and 8th grade boys can wear black pants with a dress shirt and tie. If you have trouble finding an outfit or have any questions please reach out to Mrs. Thorenson or Mrs. Marum.
The band and choir students did an awesome job of selling for our fundraiser!! The 5-12 students sold just under $20,000 worth of items!! We were so impressed! This also means that a lot of items will need to be delivered to customers. The items will be delivered to the school on Tuesday, December 10th. Please plan to come to the high school cafeteria between 3:10 and 5:45 on December 10th to pick up their items! Some of the items require refrigeration, so please plan accordingly for those items.
We look forward to seeing you all at the concert on December 12th! The students are preparing a wonderful concert for you!
Thank you!

If your student is planning to attend any post secondary training they (and a guardian) need to fill out the FAFSA.
The online FAFSA (Free Appplication for Federal Student Aid) form is available to all students and families at FAFSA.gov, and the Department is processing submissions and sending them to schools. This helps determine student loans, grants and scholarships.
Stay tuned to StudentAid.gov, where the Department will continue to share updates about the 2025-26 FAFSA cycle.
