Director's Corner
     A Successful Winter Season:  Congratulations to all our student musicians.  All of our winter concerts were a huge success. Thanks again to the FOM for all their support to make them what they are.  As we look ahead, the rest of the winter has several jazz events, hosting the Wind Ensemble Exchange Concert, and our All-Town Strings Concert.
We've had several students accepted to senior and junior MMEA SE District ensembles.  We're so proud of your accomplishments.  Soon we'll know All-State and SEMSBA results.  Good luck to our auditioners!
      Soon it will be time for 5th through 11th grade students to sign up for electives for next year.  We sincerely hope you and your children decide to join us again next year.  Participation in our active music program benefits our children in so many ways.  Despite what you might think or hear, participation throughout all of high school is a big plus to many college admissions counselors.  There's always a way to continue with music if you want to. Be sure to contact me directly if you want to but feel that there is a conflict.
      Another year of the MPSD private lessons program is well under way.  Be sure to register whether you're new or returning (see above.)  It's never too late to sign up; see the link above.  Thanks to the MPSD for our use of My Music Staff to streamline scheduling, attendance, and billing.
     Mr. Canzano and Ms. Varonko are running the wildly successful MPSD summer music program again this summer.  The schedule is slightly different than the past several years.  Please look for information from your child's music teacher about the program if you are interested.
     I'd like to welcome our newest department member, Mr. Charles Larson who will be teaching music mainly at the South River School but also at Eames Way.  We're excited to have you!
     Our department is as busy as ever at all levels. Events are now posted for this coming year. Please check the Calendar page for updated information on all Music Dept. events. Please contact me if you need anything. 
​- Mr. David Kaminski, Coordinator of Music, MPSD
