And we're back! It has been an exciting start of the school year and we are ALREADY gearing up for our first concert of the 2022-23 school year. Please join us Thursday, October 13th for "A Cookout and a Concert!" We will be hosting a cookout in the East Parking lot starting at 5:30PM and then heading into the PAC to celebrate America, its folk music tradition, and the many musical traditions that come together to create our "melting pot" of sound. Join the MHS Choirs as we present some of the greatest American folk tunes alongside music from around the world. Our students have been diligent in preparing music from India, Spain, Portugal, Puerto Rico, the Czech Republic, Andalusia, and the Shoshone tribe in a musical celebration that pairs Tagore up with Bob Dylan, Pete Seegar with Puerto Rican Rhumba, and so much more. Hope to see you there!
