Directors’ reports:  
Miss Driscoll:  
No report
Mr. Yoke: 
We need parent volunteers to ride buses with Sinfonia and Symphony and to help transport instruments for State Contest. We will need to feed the kids. There is not a ton of percussion compared to previous years.
Solo & Ensemble was amazing this year. There were 47 events. The vast majority were solos. Both judges and other people wondered how we get 41 soloists. We’re moving in the right direction. A Sinfonia group got a Superior rating for the first time. 
State Contest is going to be great.
