Prek students have begun to learn about trees. We are so lucky to have so many trees in our town. They noticed the changes in the Gibson school trees for the winter!
First grade science students have been exploring sound. They learned that a sound source will make a vibration. They could see the vibration using tuning forks. They practice listening closely to sounds and played a sound guessing game.

From November 30th-December 3rd, two Norwich High School musicians participated in the NYSSMA Conference All-State Festival in Rochester, NY. Anthony Pomares (Alto Sax, Bass 1) and Caden Stone (Double Bass) earned their spots by earning 100's on their All-State NYSSMA Solo's last May at Norwich's Solo Festival. After successfully making the group, both students recorded seating auditions and placed second in their respective sections.
Acceptance into a NYSSMA Conference ensemble is incredibly competitive and rare. Congratulations to both of these students for all their hard work and dedication over the course of their musical careers!
