Ms. Nani needs volunteers to help with rehearsals for the upcoming 5th Grade Play!
The kids can rehearse just about any time during the day after 10am. So if you would like to help, just show up any time that works for you. The teachers will send you to the cafeteria with a group of 5th graders to rehearse their part on the stage. Plan on about an hour.
The play will be performed for JSIS students during the day and in the evening for families. Both performances take place on Wednesday, June 9.

Orchestra (Strings) and Band (Woodwinds, Brass) in 6th Grade
6th Grade Music
This just in from the Hamilton orchestra boosters:
The award winning Hamilton Orchestra program is offering a class for Beginning Orchestra students next year and still has openings! Take this opportunity to give your child a chance to learn something that can last a lifetime. Each orchestra student will choose to play the violin, viola, cello, or bass, learn how to read music, and perform throughout the year. No experience required! If needed, Hamilton has instruments for your child to use for the year. Please contact Naomi Mandojana, HIMS orchestra director, for more information. nmmandojana@seattleschools.org.
Editor’s Note:
The same is true for band – students can sign up for beginning band and choose from a wide range of woodwind and brass instruments – also no experience required. Kids choose their instrument during the first weeks of class next year.
One thing to keep in mind about music classes at Hamilton – if your child plans to continue with Spanish immersion classes and they also want to take a music class, they will need to give up Physical Education (PE). To give up PE, your child will need a “PE Waiver” – meaning they need to be signed up for some kind of coached sport or activity (a wide range of things qualify – not just soccer and baseball!)
