We have just had our first band concert of this year. I am playing the French Horn for regular band and the trumpet for Jazz Band. Mr Johnson is our band teacher and he is awesome! We played some fun songs, but the best part of the whole night was spending time with my friends. My mom said she could tell the progress we have made these last couple of years. Mr Johnson had all three grades at this concert, ours played last and my mom said we were the best. This last summer I got a phone call to let me know that the band audition that we tried out for in 7th grade we got it, we are actually the only middle school band (in the state of Nebraska) to make it to this Conference. We were selected to perform at the 2008 NMEA In-Service Conference/Clinic to be held in Lincoln Nebraska on November 20-22, 2008. The acceptance letter said "congratulations on your acceptance to perform at the 2008 NMEA Conference/Clinic. The heart of a convention of music educators is the performing groups and the music they share with those in attendance.
Mr Johnson was so proud of his "little antlers" and their accomplishment!! Me too!!
The pictures aren't the best... but see if you can see me !!
