Evening of Fine Arts

The date has been verified for the EVENING of FINE ARTS - it will be Tuesday, March 8th, in the Jerome High School building complex, throughout the first floor. This will include all four bands - 6th, 7th, 8th grades, and high school. The time frame is still up in the air a bit as we want to use it to encourage voting in the school bond levy that day as well.

This will REPLACE the February 28 and March 1 ensemble concerts previously listed on the schedule. There is NO current date for the Puget Sound tour meeting, although it may very well fall on March 8 as well...stay tuned.

Evening of Fine Arts - Puget Sound tour

Our annual Evening of Fine Arts looks like it's going to be scheduled for Tuesday, March 8th in conjunction with the school district's annual bond levy election. This means that (if solidified) we'll be postponing the Ensemble Concerts scheduled for February 28th and March 1st and enfolding it within the EOFA.

We may also reconsider having the Puget Sound meeting on top of that already-large event... but we are hard at work preparing possibilities for the 2012 band/choir tour. As of today, we're most seriously doing two major events in June - the Seattle Center's 50th anniversary of the World's Fair, and the Portland Rose Parade.

Upcoming Concerts

After our Winter Concerts, we've got our annual Ensemble Concerts at the end of second term - the 6th and 7th graders will have one together, and the 8th grade and high school puts on theirs together with the Puget Sound tour meeting. We still need to set dates for these. Mr. Smith will be visiting with the admin about conflicting sporting events to set those up as soon as possible, once we've got an idea what the likely playoff dates might be. Any input you have on those dates are welcome.
Our SPRING CONCERT for all four bands (HS Symphonic, 8th Concert, 7th Intermediate, and 6th Beginning) falls on Tuesday, April 19th, and then all four of those bands perform for judging on the morning of Friday, April 22nd.
The Middle School Festival hits JHS on Wednesday, May 4th, and the Awards Concert lands on Monday, May 16th. Everybody participates in both of these!
