Northwest Elementary School students recently performed their annual Spring Concerts.

The hallways were filled with the sounds of young voices as the students prepared and rehearsed. The kindergarten classes performed songs about springtime and having fun outside. Singing songs such as “It’s a Beautiful Day,” “Born to Make Music,” “Springtime Sunshine,” and “Down at the Beach.”

The first-grade program was titled “Rainbow World.” Each song was about a color in the rainbow such as “Little Red Caboose,” “Honey Bee,” and “Purple Bricks in the Sky.” The students ended with “Paint You a Song,” a song about how wonderful it is to make music together.

Second graders performed a mini-musical called “Big Dreams.” The students sang, danced, and performed lines for their performance. The students learned about having dreams and pursuing them.

All of the students amazed their audience. Their hard work in music class and during the rehearsals was evident in the final performance.
