Congratulations to Chorus Students!
Congratulations to the students who participated in the 5th District Honor Chorus Performance.

The students involved were Glen Fletcher Tatum, Matthew Gavilanez, Kendall Geisel, Madison Hablas, Josie Hinshaw, Roxana Hojjatie, Luke Ladbrook, Averie Lico, Noah Wagar, and Neal Wagner.
Congratulations to four NMS Chorus students who successfully auditioned for the GMEA All State Chorus. They will have another round of auditions in January but are well on their way to singing in Savannah. The students are Samantha Barnes, Sarah Gould, Madison Hablas, and Noah Wagar. Way to go! This is a very competitive audition with literally thousands trying for the coveted honor.
Two singers from Northwestern were selected to perform with the ACDA Regional Honor Chorus in Winston Salem, NC. Madison Hablas and Noah Wagar are the students who received this honor.
Several students participated in the Milton High School Chorus production of Les Miserables November 18 and 19. They guest appeared as small children in the production. Brynn Wilson, Emma Canedo, Madison Hablas, Josie Hinshaw, Sam Wilder, and Cole Mantas did a fabulous job! NMS was proud to be represented in the fine production.

Concert Time!
The Northwestern Middle School Chorus will perform their fall concert at Milton High School in the school auditorium on Wednesday, October 12. The performance begins at 7:00 PM. Sixth grade students have been asked to report to the stage area at 6:15 to warm up. Seventh and Eighth grade students should report to their assigned seats in the auditorium at 6:30.
As the students assemble in the auditorium, parents are asked to wait in the foyer of the auditorium. General seating will be open at 6:50. There is no charge for the performance and it is open to the public.
I know the students are anxious about their outfits. The formal wear company promises delivery Monday. It is always a scramble to get everyone outfitted for the first concert. Let's hope everything arrives as promises!!
I know you will enjoy hearing the students this fall. They have really progressed in a short 8 weeks. I continue to be amazed at the talent in the group and the skills they are acquiring!
