Dear BRIJHS Band Parents,
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mr. Mitchell tested positive today for COVID. Mr. Mitchell will be isolating for 5 days, which means he will not be able to attend the concert this evening . THE CONCERT WILL GO ON. Mrs. Wrestler has stepped up to fill the void. The concert will include 5th Grade Beginning Band, Junior High Chorus, and Junior High Band, including 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. Mrs. Wrestler is doing a wonderful thing to make this concert happen, but due to missing parts, we have decided to cancel the 6th Grade Drumline performance. We will do our best to find an opportunity for them to perform before the end of the school year. Have a wonderful evening of music. Thank you for your support of the Arts at Blue Ridge. In music, Christopher Mitchell
All families and community members are asked to park behind the high school gym for Promenade and Coronation on Saturday. Please enter through the back gym doors. Festivities begin at 5 pm.
It was a glorious day for a wedding at recess! No, not the students.....the dolls! The school year may be wrapping up for 8th graders, but we sure enjoyed the invites and spontaneous fun!
