Welcome Back!
The new year is finally here, and we have so much to share. Keep checking back to see all the new things happening in Performing Arts. This edition features our Varsity Drum Corps and some of our High School vocalists on their way to Orlando. We are so proud of all of our Arts students, and love to see them at their full potential!
ORLANDO BOUND...
In March of this year some of our students participated in the state Fine Arts competition, hosted by Trinity Church and through the Assemblies of God. Several of our students actually won their categories, receiving Merit Awards for their performances. Included was Addie Moore (rising 10th grader) who won the state category for Female Vocal Solo - quite an accomplishment! Also, our Varsity Drum Corps won the Traditional Percussion Ensemble category.
Those who qualified were invited to Orlando in early August to participate in the next round, National Fine Arts. This week-long competition and Youth Conference will host thousands of teenagers from all across the country, and is a wonderful opportunity for our students to compete at a high level. It is also a wonderful opportunity for spiritual growth through the evening services and fellowship with other youth. Please pray for us as we travel the first week of August, and help us cheer on our Lions as we perform in our Arts categories for the glory of God!
Middle School Musical
This year we will have a musical dedicated to our Middle School Theatre students. We are so excited to offer this under the direction of Mrs. Emily Litton and other Performing Arts staff. We plan to audition and cast soon after the school year begins, and to perform in November before the Thanksgiving break. Keep an eye out for more details. This is going to be so much fun!!
