The 4^th grade band performs twice a year, once at Christmas and again in the spring. The 5^th and 6^th grade bands have three performances a year. The first one is Grandparents’ Day in the fall, the Christmas program, and a concert in the spring.

The 7^th/8^th and high school groups put on a minimum of four concerts per year. Other performance opportunities include Grandparents’ Day, trips to two assisted livings during the Christmas season, the ACSI Fine Arts Festival in March, and the Barnes and Noble Book Fair in April.

My 7^th grade students and my high school students participated in our first ever ACSI Fine Arts Festival this year on March 12^th. It was a fantastic day! My 7^th grade band received an Excellent rating, and my high school band received a Superior! The students represented GRACE so well. Congratulations to all students involved!
