I heard it's been 11years - possibly more since we have been able to do this - OCS has sent 2 students to the 6th Grade All County Band. The students sent to this have to be able to play a concert band instrument (woodwind, brass or percussion) and meet certain criteria - such as instrumental technique and an ability to read music. The students selected to go are a part of the before/after school music lessons that we have here at OCS and had to work hard to not only meet to criteria to be invited but also, to learn music to spend a day with some of the best 6th grade instrumental students in the county and participate in a 100+ student ensemble for an evening concert. CONGRATULATIONS!!!
It's September!!! So, we begin another year of music at OCS. What's back - our concerts - and yes, we have the date for the winter concert - WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 6TH. Save the date! Before and after school group instrumental lessons are available for grades 4th-8th. (parents of younger students please contact me if you are interested). The sign up forms can be found on the online "back pack". The chrome books are new for the 5th grade and will be used at times for all 5th - 8th grade students during music class. Have a great year!!!
