Our annual Christmas program is coming up quickly! We have already begun rehearsing and getting ready to spread Christmas cheer! Some performances from last year will be back, due to popular demand! I won't tell you which, you'll have to come see the show!
The performance will be December 17. Time TBA. The show will be live streamed on www.lytleisd.squarespace.com website for those of you who are unable to attend.
Students can wear anything "Christmassy"....red, green, white, sparkly. Girls may wear a dress if they'd like to. Boys are welcome to wear a dress shirt or tie as well. All students must adhere to the school dress code.

5th grade Recorders
5th graders are learning to play recorders this year. If you would like to learn more about recorders and see some of the lessons we are using, you can visit Bethsmusicnotes.com. It is a wonderful music blog. Search her blog for "recorders" or "recorder songs"
Your child has access to a recorder for use in class. However, several students have inquired about buying their own to use at home. If you would like to purchase one for your child, you may visit one of the following stores:
1. High School Music Service ..........at Alamo Ranch, at Culebra Rd & Loop 1604 in S.A.
They sell all kinds of musical instruments as well as repairing them.
2. Sam Ash Music Store.........across the freeway from North Star Mall
3. Walmart in the toy section
4. Target in the toy section
5. Dollar Tree----you can even find one for $1 here.
However, I make no guarantee that it will produce a qualtiy sound :-) But, it might
encourage them to practice at home.
Recorders are relatively inexpensive. You can purchase one for anywhere from $1-$10 , depending on the quality you'd like to get.
Happy playing!
