Jazz Band

The SRS jazz band is comprised of instrumental musicians and is a fun way for students to explore performing music outside of their normal band and orchestra ensembles. Members include prior jazz band members and interested students approved by Mrs. Baldwin. Students rehearse on a weekly basis for two concert performances (December & May) and one jazz festival (February). Jazz students perform a variety of styles including rock, blues, swing, latin, and much more. All band and orchestra instruments are welcome, as well as students who are currently taking lessons on guitar, electric bass, piano and drum-set. Jazz band will meet on Wednesday mornings from 7:30-8:15am. Due to the performance nature of this ensemble, students who are interested must be committed to the ensemble for the entire year. If you’re interested, please contact Mrs. Baldwin ([email protected]).

Jazz Lab

Do you want to learn to play jazz? Any 5th grade student or 6-8th grade student in band or orchestra can join! We will learn the basics of jazz and play some charts by the end of the school year. If you’re interested, please contact Ms. Logan ([email protected]).

Spring Musical

Each year, the 6th, 7th, and 8th Graders have the opportunity to participate in the annual spring musical! Past productions include The Music Man, Shrek: the Musical, and The Little Mermaid. Auditions will be held in early December and rehearsals begin when we return from winter break. The musical will be announced no later than October 1; ALL STUDENTS WHO AUDITION WILL BE CAST IN THE SHOW! If you are interested in auditioning, please contact Mr. Lewis ([email protected]).

Stage Crew

Are you interested in operating intelligent lights? Do you find microphones and sound design fascinating? Are you creative and like using your artistic skills to make props and costumes? If so, you should join stage crew for the musical! This awesome team of 6th-8th Graders works behind the scenes to help bring our show to life each year. Interested?
