SHILOH TODAY FINE ARTS Band The band program at Shiloh has had a remarkable school year, marked by a series of unique performances and notable achievements. This year, the marching band unveiled their halftime show, “Sway,” a vibrant tribute to the rich heritage of Latin American music and dance. They also introduced the newest addition to our performing ensembles, the Shiloh Jazz Band. The 6th grade beginning band, 7th grade band, high school band, and jazz band all showcased their talents at the annual Christmas Concert and Spring Concert. The high school band's hard work paid off with several awards this year, including First Place in class 3A at the Pottsville Marching Invitational, a 1st Division Superior rating at Marching Assessment, and an Excellent Rating at Concert Assessment. The band was well-represented at All-Region and All-State, with Region band members Katherine McKinney, Max Fraser, and All-State trumpet player Ian Fraser. The 6th and 7th grade bands are also on a steady growth trajectory, attracting more members each year. Everyone is invited to experience band performances at a football game, concert, or competition this year. 5th Grade Musical: “Seussical the Musical” In January, the 5th Grade class performed "Seussical the Musical," directed by Kim Darr. This incredible class began vocal rehearsals in December and hit the stage in January, perfecting their performance in only four weeks. Mrs. Ashley Yancey chose unique and colorfully visual costumes and brought the stage to life with an array of colors. Shiloh’s 5th graders performed four shows in front of a live audience as they followed the imaginative journey of JoJo and her fearless leader, the Cat in the Hat. They traveled through Whoville and the Jungle of Nool, encountering famous Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, the Sour Kangaroo, Mr. and Mrs. Mayor, Thing One and Two, The Grinch, and many more. The talented cast of 98 students was phenomenal on stage! 8 FINE ARTS
