Fourth Graders have been preparing since January for an amazing concert they will be attending on Tuesday, May 7.
The concert is called LINK UP and is sponsored and created by Carnegie Hall in New York City. Carnegie Hall has partnered with the West Michigan Symphony in Muskegon to bring this exciting interactive concert to fourth graders around west Michigan. The West Michigan Symphony is one of only a select number of orchestras across the United States chosen to work with Carnegie Hall, so we are so fortunate to be able to be a part of this!
What makes LINK UP so unique is how interactive it is. Students will be stomping, clapping, singing and playing their recorders right along with the West Michigan Symphony! Our theme this year is “The Orchestra Rocks” and we will be focusing on exciting ways the symphony keeps rhythm and “rocks”!
We will be leaving school at 9:30 that morning and returning by 1:15.
Your child’s teacher will be arranging alternate lunch plans since the students will not be at school for their normal lunchtime.
If you would like to attend this concert with your child, please let your child’s classroom teacher know. We have a very limited number of chaperone spots, but we would love to have you come experience this! You won’t want to miss it!
