“Hello, my name is Jaletza Mendoza, and I play the viola. I have been playing the viola for nine years , ever since fourth grade. My favorite piece that I played was Ghost of Brandenburg by Richard Meyer because it challenged me the most and pushed me to become a better musician.”My favorite orchestra memory was going to OSU for state solo and ensemble and getting Eskimo Joe’s afterwards
After graduating I plan on attending the University of Central Oklahoma and studying criminal justice and forensic science.
Advice to underclassmen:
“Don’t stress over being perfect, just do your best and keep going, because nobody is perfect.”

My name is Noah Eskridge and I have played the violin since I was 5 years old. My favorite piece that we have played was Devil Went Down to Georgia. It was a really fun experience and it was so cool to play it with Kyle Dillingham and his band.
My favorite memory is probably going to Branson, MO. It was really fun to perform in front of a large audience. I was able to hang out with a bunch of friends and overall it was a great experience.
After high school, I will major in Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences and minor in Data Analytics at the University of Oklahoma.
My advice to underclassman is don't stop playing. Learning to play the violin has been the greatest decision of my life. It has granted me many opportunities I wouldn't have gotten otherwise and it can really help you in your own life. If you quit or stop, you will lose out on so much. Enjoy playing your instrument and have fun performing.

My advice to underclassmen is honestly to just have fun with it! You going to gain and lose people but in the end you will just look back and how far you’ve come as a person.

It’s time for our annual senior salutes! First up, Jessica Swedlow!

Hi! My name is Jessica Swedlow and I've been playing the violin since 4th grade so 9 years. My favorite piece we have played was Perseus because it was a fun and good challenge.
My favorite orchestra memory was when we did our concert with Horseshoe Road my freshman year.
I plan to go to Oklahoma State University and major in hospitality and tourism management.
My advice for underclassmen would be to make building memories a priority. Do all the random fun things and don't let all the school stuff overwhelm you too much.
