Mid February

Dowell Singers:  Reminder we have a rehearsal this Wednesday, normal time, regular space...
Our Field Trip is this Friday 2/15 and we will leave at 10:30 am.  Please remember to wear your full uniform and bring your lunch - if you are not buying a lunch from school. 

All music classes are celebrating Black History Month by exploring important contributions of African Americans to the history of American Music.  Our celebrations include:  ragtime, jazz, blues, spirituals, and current composers of significance.  Fourth and Fifth Grade classes still do need their recorders for practice! 

Kindergarten and 1st grade are also singing about Presidents in preparation for President's Day later this month. 

Please remember to mark Feb. 21st on your calendars to attend the Black History Program.  The students are working very hard to prepare!  Information will be coming home from Mrs. Sullivan.  Thanks to all the parents and staff who are helping with rehearsals.
