Music is a vital part of-the curriculum at St. Patrick Parish School.
All students at St. Patrick Parish School participate in a 45 minute music class each week. Classes are held in a beautiful new music room completed in 2003 with money raised during the school auction! Each music class is comprised of a minimum of three components. Our music teacher, Mrs. Gail Beall, prepares students for our monthly all school Mass and prayer services which our school community celebrates with much singing and praises to God.
But singing is only part of what students study in Music class. They study composers, learn about the orchestra and, of course, learn the language of music and music theory. Along the way, students often have the opportunity to use their own creative expression both in the classroom and when they perform in three annual school music programs: the Christmas program, the Grandparent's Day program, and the Spring Fling.
The school choir also meets once a week. Students in the school choir sing for local community events and help with the music for school Masses and Prayer Services.
