Solo & Ensemble and Basketball
Today was a really busy day! To start off, Kirstyn had her Solo and Ensemble Festival. She performed both an instrumental number with her clarinet (which Angela accompanied her on) and a voice piece with a group of her friends from chorus. They did well. Kirstyn thinks that she did MUCH better on her clarinet

No School and Kirk Vacation Day!!!
