4th overall in the meet.
Orchestra Honors
Our students were FABULOUS at LGPE!
Chamber Ensemble = Superior Rating
Philharmonic Orchestra = Superior Rating
Symphonic Orchestra = Excellent Rating
Concert Orchestra = Superior Rating
All orchestras were Superior in
Sightreading. After Concert Orchestra sightread straight through
the piece, the judge remarked on
how difficult the piece was and
that they were the first orchestra
that had been able to read through
it
without stopping. After Philharmonic finished their own sightreading, an aide in the room said to
another, "Wow, that was awesome!"
All of the judges' critiques were valid and provide us a strong platform for future instruction as the students continue to strengthen their
technical skills and move to higher artistic levels.
Other remarks made by judges:
Bravo!

Great attention to detail
Beautiful lyrical sound
Beautiful development of the musical
phrase

SOCCER STARS!
Both our JV and our Varsity teams volunteered
to give up the last part of their weekends in
order to help mentally and physically handicapped children have a positive soccer experience. They represented Mill Creek and their
coaches well. Their willingness to go the extra
mile for members of the community reflect
the positive example each of
the team's coaches provide.
We are very fortunate to
have people of such high
character involved with our
kids. Huge shout out to all the
kids who participated!!!!
