Superior Ratings at State-Wide CHSAA Competition

CONGRATULATIONS to all of the HRHS Orchestra and Wind Ensemble Members for their unheard of performance and honors at the state-wide CHSAA competition this week!

We had three ensembles perform -- Symphony Orchestra, Chamber Orchestra, and Full Orchestra. All three ensembles received a straight sweep of Superior ratings. It is very rare for even one top ensemble to receive a straight superior rating. I have not heard of another school in the state accomplish this feat with three ensembles.

Huge shout out to Kevin Larsen and the Wind Ensemble for their awesome support and performance at contest, we couldn't have done it with out you. Again, congratulations to all our Symphony and Chamber students on their outstanding performance! Bravo!!!

Transitioning Treasurer

Thanks to all who participated in the online voting process to help us select a new Orchestra Boosters Treasurer for 2016-2017. By unanimous vote, we will move forward with transitioning Kim Gross into the role of Treasurer.

THANK YOU to MELANIE HALL,  who has served as our Treasurer for the past two years. We appreciate your service to the Orchestra! Melanie's help has been invaluable, and she has made a positive impact on our entire program through her service. We look forward to the contributions she will continue to make to the Orchestra Boosters as a veteran parent and Booster member.
