Congratulations to the Band and Choir on their first performance at the IESA State Contest! It was a great experience for us. Now that we've done it once we'll know what to work on for next year. We received some great feedback from the judges on ways to improve and help our band and choir grow.

The results for contest were as follows:

             St. Matthew Band - II rating
             St. Matthew Choir - I rating

Thanks to all the parents who brought their students and others. It was a great opportunity for us. We look forward to performing our contest pieces as well as several other lighter pieces on thursday for you at the concert. The Spring Concert starts at 7 p.m. please be there by 6:45 in my room to do a quick tune-up.
