A message for a parent to be shared with all families

Hello, fellow parents!  I'm really looking forward to this year's recital and hope you are too.  In addition to being a parent of two performers, I'm also a parishioner of the Church of the Resurrection, this year's venue.  I know we'll be there to listen to our children perform, but I want to respectfully ask you to remember that we won't be in "just another building."  Please be courteous of each other and the house, and be mindful of the events and masses for which it’s typically used.  The floor is sloped, similar to stadium seating, there's truly not a bad seat in the house. 


Thanks so much, I'm looking forward to hearing all the kids play on the 22nd!   Laura Bertekap

How to Turn the Summer Music Slide Into the Summer Music Success

 Recent North Haven Elementary and High School Chorus Performance It's almost here!  Summer time!  No School Work, No Home Work, No Activities............But wait....... Is that what you REALLY want for your child? Studies show that there is a 9% average of lost studies retention and even higher with students who have a learning disability such as Dyslexia , ADHD or being on the Autistic Spectrum.   Avoiding all educational ideas in the summer quarter sets up a vicious cycle.  Parents have to reinstitute learning practices and routines.  Students have to relearn what they already had done in preparation for what is to come.  This set back is not good for their self esteem, sense of worth, however your household might describe it.  Why not come up with a plan NOW to implant learning practices that will WORK for your summer plans.  Not only will this work with academics, but music lessons too.   Going away for several weeks?...
