Middle School Music Sign-Ups due this week!

Middle School Music Sign-Ups due this week!

Parents of 5th graders: 

Recently your child attended an in-school performance of the Richland Two middle school bands, choruses, and orchestras. Students learned about the instruments and programs offered to rising 6th graders at our District Two middle schools. Each student received a brochure with an interest form attached for you to sign and return to your child's elementary school music teachers by March 31st. 

During March, we celebrate music in our schools month and we use this time as our "signing days" for students to begin their musical education in the 6th grade. If your son or daughter is interested in joining band, chorus, or orchestra when they enter 6th grade, please turn in the interest form to Ms. Rayner.

For your convenience, you may also sign the interest form online at the district website. Go to www.richland2.org, click parents and community, click Middle School Music. We look forward to your family becoming a part of the the award winning Richland Two music family.

Cub Scout Information

Pontiac's Cub Scout Pack has recently merged with Lonnie B. Nelson's Cub Scout Pack, creating a joint, active and fun Cub Scout Pack #101!  The cub scouts are busy making their Pinewood Derby cars for the big race on Saturday.  They also recently visited The State House and met Representative Beth Bernstein and celebrated the birthday of Boy Scouts with a Blue & Gold celebration.  Earlier this week they had a litter clean-up day at Lonnie B. Nelson Elementary and will be rescheduling a date to clean up Pontiac Elementary due to a rain-out last Saturday.  If you are interested in joining Cub Scouts (boys grades 1st through 5th grade), please contact Angela Vandelay (deanandangela@gmail.com) or Ryon Miro(pack101cm@gmail.com).
