Welcome An exciting development this year was the re-in- troduction of band and choral groups. They had been discontinued because of the six class sched- ule and cutbacks in funds, but Father Brelsford re- instated these classes because he felt that the per- forming arts are an important part of a well-rounded education. Band students worked toward the goal of becom- ing both a marching and a concert band, and learned to play effectively in an ensemble. Mr. Ed Archer, the band and choral instructor, commented on the band. They are not ready for competition or performance, but they improve every day. Choral classes introduced students to various forms of choral singing, from classical to pop. They participated in a choral workshop at Mount St. Mary s College, and they also performed for school masses, for the student body, and for open house. Their main goal was the entertaining spring con- cert. —Sandra Pigati— BEGINNING CHORUS: Mary Ann Bleier, Josefina Dela Cruz. Alice Dzidic, Dwana Farr, Ericka Fawl. Mia Floyd. Roisin Grayer. Katy Hal- lal. Gloria Haro. Gina Holmes. Claire La Fia, Charlene McDonald. Kelly Rierdan, and Kathryn Stephenson.
