The 2013-2104 school year has brought some welcome changes to the SAS Fine Arts Department.
We welcome Mrs. Jude Fay as our Theatre Arts teacher. Although I no longer teach Theatre Arts, I will leave my information on my web page until she has time to get her site up and running.
We welcome Mrs. Beverly Singhel, who has started our first band program at SAS! We are so grateful for the strong support of this program. It is wonderful to be able to round out our music program by offering both instrumental and choral opportunities for our students.
The addition of a band director and a theatre teacher has freed up my schedule to offer more music opportunities for our students. For the first time in many years, I get to provide music for the Friday morning mass. As you know, this is not an all school mass; instead, individual classes attend for what is hopefully a deeper, more personal experience. I am taking the opportunity to invite a student from the attending class to assist me with music by singing the Psalm.
Made for Praise is back by popular demand! M4P is being offered as a Quality Project this year for 3rd & 4th graders. We will meet every other Friday, during QP time. Our first rehearsal is this Friday, 9/13. Mrs. Fay and I are co-directors for the choir. If you have questions or need more information, please feel free to contact either of us.
And last, but certainly not least, the music / art room got a much needed fresh coat of paint this summer! We "re-habbed" some bulletin boards that were no longer being used in the school and added 9 of them to our room. They look fabulous and provide more places for us to display student work, instructional visuals and general information. Our room looks fantastic! Can you tell that I really, really love it!! Feel free to stop by and check it out!
