Musicians in Grades 4 - 12 showcased their vocal and instrumental talents on the evening of May 9 at University of Evansville's Shanklin Theatre. Their year-long hard work and resilience was on display, and the students did an excellent job of performing! Special thanks to our music faculty, Amber Ferguson & Steve Greenwell, for their work with Day School's musicians.
