A Note of Thanks – 

Dear Students and Parents,

I can’t thank you enough for the lovely 25th Anniversary surprise last weekend!  I was incredibly humbled and appreciative of your thoughtfulness in creating such a truly special evening in celebration of my 25th year with the Lassiter Orchestra.  The food and incredible cakes and desserts were amazing!  So many lovely flowers, presentations, thoughtful cards and gifts….I was truly overwhelmed!  Thank you Mr. Mori, Mr. Thompson, Dr. Richie, Mr. Warner, and Mrs. Donahue for your kind words, and a special thanks to all of the alumni who traveled to share this moment with us.  I’m so blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful students, parents, colleagues, and friends!

Most Appreciatively,
Carol Doemel


 

Volunteers needed for LGPE Feb 12 -14

Lassiter High School is honored to host the 2018 Large Group Performance Evaluations.  LGPE gives our students and directors valuable feedback from a credentialed panel of judges on the state of our performing groups.  We ask your help to volunteer for the various tasks associated with running this important event so that we can provide a great experience for all the middle and high school orchestras that attend.  Thank you for your support!

 <<Sign up here>>

Please check in at the Welcome Desk in the Concert Hall lobby, and arrive 15 minutes prior to your assignment to be briefed on your role.  Feel free to volunteer for as many assignments as you wish — but only one assignment per time slot, please.  We’re looking forward to a fantastic LGPE event!

You may send a scan of your card to secretary@lhsoa.org , or you may send in a copy for the drop box with your student.  Remember front and back please if you have a new card for 2018.  Thanks for your cooperation!
