Thank you to everyone that attended the MHS Pops Concert and showed their support of the many talented members of the band and chorus for Medway High School. We nearly sold out all the tables in one day!

MEDWAY MIDDLE SCHOOL BAND AND CHORUS

Congratulation to all of the Medway Middle School Band and Chorus students for outstanding performances on May 14th and May 21st under the direction of Ms. Erin Cronan and Ms. Nori Von Jena.


Special congratulations to Senior Andrew Morris for conducting the 5th Grade Chorus as part of his MHS Internship.


Andy started his internship with Ms. von Jena in January of this year. He was able to work with her 5th, 6th, and 8th grade chorus classes and her 8th grade theater arts class. Andy worked wonderfully with the students and took on the challenge to conduct one of the 5th grade pieces, “Where Go the Boats?” Andy will be attending Bridgewater State in the fall with hopes to become a science teacher in the future. 


Ms. von Jena was excited to share that Andy got his start with her in middle school and ended his Medway career on the same stage.

Medway High School Band had the opportunity to serve the Medway community by marching in the Memorial Day Parade. Several singers from choir sang patriotic selections and Abby Brown played Taps at the ceremony that followed.
