White Hill 6th Grade and Advanced Orchestras took part in the Music in the Parks Festival at Six Flags, Vallejo on Saturday May 7th. Both ensembles impressed the judges and were rated "Superior", coming first in their categories! The Advanced (7th and 8th grade) Orchestra also won the award for Best Overall Middle School/Junior High String Orchestra in the competition! I am incredibly proud of our students, who worked so hard for this achievement. White Hill's 6th Grade Concert Choir, 7th/8th Grade Festival Choir, and 6th Grade Concert Band also took part in the festival, and were all rated "Superior", coming first in their respective categories! In addition, White Hill was awarded the Esprit de Corps award for great character and conduct! Congratulations, White Hill!
