Can you believe it's almost back to school?!
This year's TMP High School Key Club officers are already back to spreading kindness and cheer...Welcome bags for Freshmen and new students! See you Monday!
Hello everyone! Pop Singer auditions are fast approaching and Mr. Befort hopes to see many of you audition!
Audition Dates are Tuesday, August 20 from 3:30:-5:30 and Thursday, August 22 from 5:00-7:00. Pop Singers are a select group of students from Freshman to Seniors at TMP-Marian. The audition will consist of two parts, a pitch retention test in the choir room and a singing audition in the band room.
The Pitch Retention test will help to determine how well you stay in a given key and this will be done to help determine what voice part you will be assigned to (this can change throughout the year depending on changing voices or need in the ensemble.)
The singing audition will consist of two pieces: a prepared piece selected by the student (that is school appropriate, preferably not rap, it is a singing audition) and the singing of the National Anthem or Amazing Grace. The student will tell the accompanist what their starting key will be in at the time of the audition. If there is concern as to what key to start in please contact Mr. Befort prior to your audition.
All students, including those that were prior members of the ensemble will need to audition.
Hope to see you all there and please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns! Mr. Max Befort - befortm@tmpmarian.org
New Toy for Future Creative Learning Building
Thomas More Prep-Marian's Career and Technical Education (CTE) department has a new toy. Teacher Matt Brown set up and tested the school's new Boss LS1630 laser cutter on Aug. 7.
While the Creative Learning Building (CLB) is being constructed, this machine is immediately accessible to students and staff in the school's current shop. The Boss laser cutter can engrave, cut, and emboss various materials such as anodized aluminum, wood, glass, and plastics. Both junior high and high school students will be able to train and work with this amazing tool. It will impact content areas including art, engineering, business, math, science, and CTE!
Sample video of laser cutter in action - https://youtu.be/M7emZ098iZ0
Many more amazing tools and technology are on the way for the new CLB.
Updated construction schedules shows going out to bid for dirt and concrete work in Aug/Sep. That work is expected to be completed towards the end of the year (weather permitting) so that exterior building construction can begin in January/Feb 2025.
Thank you everyone who has supported and continues to support the CLB, career and technical programs, and creative learning for all students at TMP-Marian!
