2011 District Monster Concert

The Provo School District had their big combined Monster Concert this past week. The kids at my school were all very nervous, but it think it went well. They had interesting experiences meeting students from the other schools and were pretty inspired by the high school group. I tried to take some pictures while they were practicing, but sadly most didn't turn out due to the lighting. There were a lot of students there, and I always look forward to this concert. I'll try to point out who's where-- sorry there are few good, close pictures.

It was interesting talking to them about the concert the next day of class. They loved how many people were there and how loud they could be with that many people on the stage. They were excited to get as good as the high schoolers one day. So hopefully that means at least the rest of the year will be nice and they'll all practice :)
