We are thrilled to share that 7 AHS students were selected to the MA Music Educators Association Senior District Festival this year. They successfully auditioned against musicians from across WMass, and will get to perform in a special concert with a guest conductor at UMass Amherst. Students selected include Samuel B, Sean C, Abigail D, William G, and Madison P, Nicholas N, and Amy V.
They also looked great on Pajama Day! What awesome school spirit!
Gabe Rua and Nick Nguyen took time out of their busy schedules by volunteering as buglers to play "Taps" as part of Granger School's Veterans Day celebration yesterday. So many of the veterans went over to shake their hand and say thank you to the boys. Thanks to Gabe and Nick for being a big part of what makes AHS such a special school.
Fall Concert
The fall concert performance was held last Thursday. Our Percussion Ensemble, Concert Choir, and Wind Ensemble were as usual… outstanding. All of the selections were amazing!
