We have been informed by the Region XX Orchestra Division Chair of changes to the new seatings in both Philharmonic and Concert Orchestras. All the students are the same but different chairs and two alternates have been added. Please direct all inquiries to Miss Willson, our Orchestra Director.
On Saturday, October 20th, our Highland Park Middle School Orchestra students auditioned for Region XX Philharmonic and Concert Orchestras at MacArthur High School. Of the 36 who auditioned, 34 have been accepted plus two alternates. Congratulations to these students!
