Don't forget that we have a field trip next Friday, November 11th. A note was sent home two weeks ago in your child's Friday folder. In case you didn't received the note from our music teacher, Mrs. Ritter, here is a reminder of what it stated...
Dear Parents and Friends of 4th and 5th graders—
I hope this message finds you well! I want to inform you about an upcoming music field trip opportunity for our 4th and 5th grade students. On Friday November 11th, students will go to Ann Arbor to see a live performance by the “Rebirth Brass Jazz Band” from New Orleans! This dynamic group is both known for their traditional brass sound, as well as their combination of funk, jazz, soul and hip-hop, while celebrating the traditional New Orleans music traditions and heritage. Prior to the field trip, students will be learning about the origins of jazz, and the importance of New Orleans in the birth of this musical style.
The cost to attend this field trip is $10, which includes bussing to Ann Arbor, and concert ticket. Students will leave UPA at 9:30 to attend the 11:00 performance.
If your student will be attending, please send them with $10 to their classroom teacher by Friday, Novemeber 4th. Also, if you are willing to be a parent chaperone on the trip, please email me at kritter@uprep.com.
Thanks and I look forward to sharing this fantastic musical experience with your students!
--Ms. Ritter
