A select number of Orchestra students under the direction of Ms. Christina Sienkiewicz, will be performing for the Tree Lighting Ceremony at Capitol Square this Thursday, December 5th at 5 pm. After the tree lighting, students will perform in one of the ballrooms of the Governor’s Mansion while the pubic tours the mansion and meets the Governor.

The Dragon’s reputation for excellence is one of the reasons they receive this distinct honor.
