Music Digital Days!
From Mrs. Endicott & Mr. Denney
We are so happy to offer a way for your child to continue their music learning from home! This page will be the official page with all of the updated information for digital learning for your child and will be consistently updated as needed. I will also make sure to include information or details for chorus students that may include a virtual meet-up in the event a digital learning day occurs on a Thursday! How fun!!!
