Hello PSHP Families and Students

            I would like to thank the PSHP Friends, under the direction of Andrea McCotter, Casey Hrycyk, and Julia Guthrie, for their planning of our FUNdraiser Carnival.  What a fun afternoon while we raised $2,500 for PSHP.  Some of our dreams are to repair a string bass we have and to look into purchasing a baritone for the band.   Thank you again for those that donated, cooked, and attended our event.

We are gearing up for Contest on March 31 with beautiful music!!  Please save the whole day on March 31 as the schedule will be a warm-up and performance time in the Sanctuary with the judges  These will be scheduled one performing class at a time from 8:00 to 5:00.That schedule will be out by March 17.

            Some students have registered for the optional Federated Music contest this Saturday at Evangel 1111 N Glenstone. All events are in the Burnett Fine Arts Building, directly beside the chapel.  This is visible from Glenstone.  Please wear something nice and arrive at least 15 minutes before your assigned time.  All soloists or their teachers need to have an original piece of music (no photocopies) to give to the judge that has all of the measures numbered.  Instrumentalists will need to have at least one of their songs memorized and strings have to have both songs memorized.  Theory students will need to meet outside the Choir Room-Room 123 at 12:55 for their test which is scheduled from 1-2.  Please bring a couple of pencils and a good eraser.  All of these students have been preparing months for this special event. Please lift up these students, accompanists and teachers in your prayers!!

                                     Please refer to your email from Kathy, or talk to Kathy or Dan for the schedule for Federation
