I spoke with the 5th Grade Families about LIVE music and the beauty we can find in its imperfections. Here is the @CISCMSD 5th grade Band's live concert performance:

It's Concert Day part two! The 6th graders at @CISCMSD will perform their final farewell concert this evening. It's been a joy teaching them for the past three (or in some cases SEVEN!) years.

Thank you to the two most patient people in the world who support our bands in every possible way: Mr. Kleinhans at @CISCMSD and Mrs. Dziak @MuseCMSD! I could not do my job as well without your guidance, support, and kindness. I appreciate you both more than you could ever know.
What better way is there to celebrate #NationalPrincipalsDay with a day in the life of a school principal?
Thank you, school principals, for all the ways you support your school communities every day!
As a person on both sides (a parent and a teacher), the positives often get overlooked. I know we are all so busy. Take the time. Write a positive, short e-mail to their supervisor. It can be so encouraging to see their work recognized and appreciated!
Looking for some ideas to prepare for #TeacherAppreciationWeek next week?
Here are four ways to celebrate your favorite educators! 🎉👩🏫✨
#TAW24 #ThankATeacher
ALT Help your child create a super craft card. Bring out all the tools!
ALT Bake them a cake or a batch of their favorite cookies. Make sure to involve your child in the process!
ALT Write a letter to the principal explaining how a teacher was outstanding. "And the award for Teacher of the Year goes to..."
ALT Continue working with them to meet all your child's goals. Because teamwork makes the dream work!
The @CmhsOfficial Concert Band, Symphonic Band, Jazz Band, and Concert Choir earned Superior ratings at their adjudication! All three C-M Bands earned perfect scores of 100 from both judges. Jazz Band and Symphonic Band won the Best Overall Band Award! #ISWM #EveryDayCounts
Bravo to the @so_central_elem 4th Grade Band and Chorus and their music teacher, Ms. Wills, on a beautiful Spring Concert performance today! #BigMacsBigPossibilities #EveryDayCounts
The @CmhsOfficial Concert Band played "Rage" by @RandallStandrid for the @CISCMSD 5th Grade students as part of our Side-by-Side. The 5th Graders are going to be performing a piece of his, "Mechanical Monsters," in our May Spring Concert!
The @CISCMSD 5th Grade Band also welcomed the @CmhsOfficial Concert Band to play a Side-by-Side with us this morning!
