Hey Everyone! Jesse and Leah here! We are very sad to have had to cancel FCSS program for the rest of this semester so we thought we would put together a little project to close out the year! We took the piece that our class was preparing for final concert and got as many of the senior students that we could to play on it! The result is below! Feel free to share the video wherever you like (it is also featured on our Youtube channel and instagram page). Thanks very much to al...l of the students who participated, to Ellen for helping coordinate it and to Mark Payne for editing this great video for us! Enjoy! Texoma Bound by The Time Jumpers feat. FCSS Senior Violin Students (Leah/Jesse’s class, Nic Carlucci's Class, Pat’s Class) Piano - Mark Payne Guitar - Alex Baerg Bass - Erik Larson Drums - Mark Swan Video - Mark Payne Audio Eng. - Alex Baerg Arrangement - Jesse Grandmont

FCSS is online, kids in Books 1 and 2!!! Please join us on Google Classroom as we work on repertoire, technique, and sight reading skills! But first... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stNhPUODwHM&feature=youtu.be

A friendly reminder that there are no classes this week and next due to March break. Stay safe and healthy everyone!

So excited to see so many kids already signed up for our summer string institute at the London Waldorf school! It's going to be a great way to continue all of the hard work we do at FCSS throughout the year, while building friendships, confidence, new skills, and having fun! (Choir, visual arts, outdoor playtime all included!)
