High School Solo and Ensemble Contest

Ross was very well represented Saturday at the OMEA solo and ensemble contest. This is the largest group we have had competing since before covid. It is such an important and valuable experience that helps not only the performer - but our entire band. Please consider being a part of an ensemble or even taking a solo next year. And if you did it this year - Do It Again! I was very proud of all the students Saturday. Not just for their performances but for the work that they put into it to make it to the contest that day. I know they all became better musicians because of their hours of preparation.
