The sixth grade band performs with clarinetists, from left in the front row: Jorge Batista, Damian Rivera, Leila Hernandez Vargas, Gift Shed, Kenya Rico and Ian Conley, and alto sax player Kianna Banda. Clarinetists in the second row are Nellie McKenna and Liza Bumstead. The fifth and sixth grade bands are under the baton of Shannon Poor Bear.
The sixth grade choir, under the direction of Jolene Schaefer performs “Fireflies.” Moving pinpoints of light from the singers’ flashlights become “fireflies” as the lights are dimmed, making this number a sure crowd pleaser.
