2022 Barton Pond Winter Concert

The students in the Barton Pond music clubs and our 3rd grade student body did an amazing job at our inaugural concert! Our first concert was held on Thursday, December 15th, 2022 at 6:30 p.m. in our school's gym. The Barton Pond chorus and the 3rd graders performed the musical The Grumps of Ring-A-Ding-Town by John Jacobson and John Higgins. Songs from the musical included "Hear Them Ring", "Grumpy", "Snowmageddon", "Together", and "The Sound in Your Heart". There were also performances by the Barton Pond percussion ensemble, ukulele club, and the 4th and 5th grade recorder ensemble. Below you can see pictures from the concert and the stage that was decorated by the Barton Pond art club led by our phenomenal art teacher, Mrs. Annie Pakes. We want to give special thanks to our accompanist, Danielle DeSwert Hahn, our mistress of ceremony and assistant principal, Mrs. Kortney Howerton, the Barton Pond PTA, all parent and teacher volunteers, Mrs. Pakes and the Barton Pond art club, the Leesville Road High Tri-M Music Honor Society, the Barton Pond custodial staff, Gusty Flow Films, and the family and friends of our bullfrogs. We are looking forward to a great spring concert!
