East Whittier Middle School Instrumental Music Program
AExciting things are happening at EWMSIMP!
Winter Concert ~ Wednesday, December 5th at Whittier Union HS Victor Lopez Auditorium, 7:00pm. Tickets are $7 and will go on sale November 30th. Children 5yrs and under are free. This is our first Formal Concert of the school year and it is always amazing to see/hear how far our young musicians have developed. Students are to wear "Concert Black" uniforms.
Boys: Black dress pants, black dress shoes, black socks, white tuxedo shirt.
Girls: Floor length black skirts, black dress shoes, black tights, white tuxedo shirt. We are providing each student with a cummerbund & bow tie which they return when they exit the program. Suggestion: make or purchase skirts a size or two larger that can be rolled up and covered by the cummerbund. Shoes may also be a size or two larger & stuffed with newspaper - if it is good enough for the Royals why not try it? The Friends of EWMSIMP are ordering tuxedo shirts at $15 each. Please return the order form with money by November 16th. An order form is included below.
Practice Records/Listening Logs ~ November logs have been distributed and are Due December 3rd.
Students have ONE week to turn them in. Best to plan ahead.
All-Southern California & All-State Honor Group Auditions ~ Several of our 7th & 8th grade students are preparing for an amazing opportunity! Their individual performance is dramatically improving because of their hard work and if selected, they will be performing with the best students in the state. Truly an Honor! For those auditioning for All-State, please contact Mrs. C for recording schedules and those auditioning for All-Southern, your audition times will appear on the SCSBOA website in a couple of weeks.
Wishing You Good Preparation!
Angel Tree Project ~ Each year in December, we participate with the Whittier Salvation Army in providing toys for those in need through the Angel Tree Project. Students select and Angel, and shop for them either before or at our shopping day at the Whittwood Target on Tuesday, December 11th from 3 - 4:30pm. The gifts are then delivered to the Salvation Army the following morning.
Please Support EWMSIMP!
There are a few ways in which you can support our music program, through our Annual Wreath & Tree Sale, and SCRIP. Order forms have gone home with your student. Wreath & Tree orders are Due November 16th and will be delivered to EWMS and ready for pick up on Saturday, December 1st. The SCRIP orders may be submitted anytime. It takes at least a week to process. Class competition for this fundraiser has begun and will conclude on December 3rd; however SCRIP may be purchased ALL YEAR! This is free money for our program, so please take advantage of this opportunity.
And finally, Amazon Smiles. We are a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization and if you purchase items through Amazon Smiles, list the
