Fall, 2015


 Welcome back! November has marched in and everyone has received a report card for the first quarter by now.  First two months of school have been busy, not enough time to give a summary of events. I am catching up on some exciting summer updates and studio news. 
 Students performed first recitals at "Woodlands" in September and October, we were welcomed back by residents with many smiles and cheerful applause. 
                                           Sophia W., Story Day
Last week, several students participated in VMTA Fall Festival, congratulations on job well done, everyone!

 Kayleigh submitted her work for MTNA Composition Competition, and it has advanced to MTNA Souther Division Competition.  Congratulations!

  Past summer, many other important achievements were accomplished. Jacqui broke several records in free style swimming, her accomplishments were mentioned in local newspaper. Charlotte made it to Zone Team in swimming, one step closer to Olympics! Lucy broke several team records in breast stroke and IM, she also advanced to swim at CSL All Stars. 
   Kayleigh, Cameron and Raelyn spent many hours polishing their serves at tennis court. All had a lot of fun doing it.
