ATTENTION PARENTS/GUARDIANS:   2/3 Musical April 23 or 25th!

The 2/3 musical is fast approaching! Please encourage your child to get on our dbesmusic website at https://dbes.pasco.k12.fl.us/music-page/ as often as possible to practice the songs! The links on the page are downloadable so that you can download them to their device for practice ease! We want students to feel confident. If your child has a speaking part, please take a few minutes to work with them each day to ensure that they know their part.

Below are the details of the musical and the letter you should have received a few weeks ago. There is also a list of costume ideas for you- just look for your child’s character and you will see what they are to wear for both performances. If you have any questions, please let us know.

We can’t wait to perform for you in a few short weeks!

The following letter was sent on February 28, 2024                                                   

Dear Parents/Guardians:

              As part of our Music curriculum at Double Branch Elementary we strive to have a variety of performance opportunities for each grade level throughout the school year. We also give students many opportunities to practice appropriate concert manners so that when they leave our school they are well versed in what is expected from them as a performer or as an audience member.

              We are excited to tell you that we are beginning to work on the 2nd and 3rd grade musicals. All of 2nd and 3rd grade will be performing a musical entitled “Summer Camp!” This musical will be performed here at Double Branch Elementary in our cafeteria. Because our 2nd and 3rd grade is so large, we will need to split our students into 2 groups.

Please see the schedule below to see when your child’s class is performing.

Mark your calendars! Here are the dates:

April 23rd  The following classes will be performing: Shannon, Stalans, Levin, Agnes, Jennings, Baig, Pramberger

April 25th  The following classes will be performing: Benson, Horner, Joyce, Morris, Glen, Henderson, Duguid

Two Shows and Times:

Performance #1: Students will be performing the musical for half of the school during the school day.

Performance #2: The performance for families and friends will take place in cafeteria at Double Branch Elementary and will begin at 6:30 p.m. that evening. Students will need to arrive in the music room at 6:00 p.m. that evening to prepare. 

We look forward to seeing you in April!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Jennifer Coyne & Miss Bethanie Collins
