Message from the Reps

We've had a great start to the new school year - students going the wrong way in the stairwells, not following "flow" arrows and getting lost in the halls. At least the students have brought their great attitudes and even better fashion! All kidding aside, we are so thankful the students are back in school playing and singing together after far too many months. To get a small glimpse of the day to day at LaGuardia, follow lagalumniandfriends, laguardia_hs_families and sgolag on Instagram.

Don't Forget!

Blurb from Ben

On Tuesday September 14, new AP Ben Schott spoke at our Music Studio zoom meeting. He is very excited for this school year, and knows there are many challenges ahead. He encourages all parents and guardians to reach out to him with questions, as communication is a top priority. If you missed the meeting (and we know with the capacity restriction that many did), you can view the recording on the PA website under Music Studio Community Message board by clicking the link below

Student Spotlight

In an effort to give LaGuardia Music Studio students in person performance opportunities, we have put together a showcase at Hill Country Barbecue on November 14th. Please read the attached letter and if interested, fill out the submission form, located within the letter.

Hill Country Showcase

In the know

Each student rep in the Music department (one for vocal, one for instrumental) has set up a "remind group". These text reminds will help keep you updated on upcoming events and performances. Please keep in mind these informational texts are student led and should be used as reminders for parents. Students are also encouraged to sign up for their respective "remind group" so they can stay abreast on upcoming events.

To enroll for vocal send a text to 81010 with the message @4738ef

To enroll for instrumental send a text to 81010 with the message @lagmusic
