Spring Semester in Review
The schedule became so busy February-May that we haven't had time to keep up with all the "happenings" of the students of the Mountain View Jr. Music Club. The students all placed Superior ratings at all the festivals and many students placed 1st-3rd in the ACEA State Fine Arts competition. Several students even qualified to compete in the ACEA National Competition held at Bob Jones University this past April. Marissa and Valerie each competed in a piano competition associated with the Alabama Federation of Music Clubs. Marissa won $50.00 cash prize in her competition. Valerie didn't place this time, but she performed very well and received some wonderful comments from the judges. Four of our voice students(Marissa, Victoria W., Christine, and Victoria G.) competed in a small vocal ensemble at ACEA state competition and won first in the
state and third at Nationals!
