Dear Schofield 小蓝视频,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I have been sitting in fairly frequently with the Grade 5 chorus as they prepare for their Winter Solstice concert on Friday, December 19 at 9 a.m. \u00a0The students are working hard and rounding into form. \u00a0Special thanks to Mr. Polletto, sublime Schofield Music Teacher, for his instructional prowess over the past four months. \u00a0As I have stated in different forms and formats, the Grade 5 Chorus teaching assignment is among the most challenging in public education. \u00a0Regarding this assignment, Mr. Polletto excels at a level that I have not been previously privy to. \u00a0Additionally, Ms. Messore, Schofield Building Substitute, consistently supports the entire Grade 5 chorus during their weekly lessons as well. \u00a0Huge thanks to her as well! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I wanted to wish a Happy Hanukkah to those who will be celebrating it starting this coming Sunday. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
