Spring 12 Calendar of Events
|
|
The Elementary music teachers requested that we change the date of our Area Concert to March 8. March 8 is our new date. It was orginally scheduled for Feb. 23rd. Please mark your calendars.
- Due to the construction planned this summer in the MPR here at Newhart, we also need to move our Final Concerts. Sorry! The Band Final Concerts are tentatively scheduled for May 30. The Orchestra Final Concerts are scheduled for May 31, we hope. Same times as originally scheduled. They were orginally scheduled for June 5, 6 or 7. Please mark your calendars accordingly.
For those of you who ordered photos, your pictures will be delivered to Newhart and passed out in approx. 4-6 weeks after taking the photo (photo taken on 1/5).
Honor Results Posted on the right side. Congrats to those who made it.
