The Return of Jazz in the Park

It has been a frustrating year for the Music Department in the School District of Belleville. For most of the school year, recommendations from Public Health Madison & Dane County and state music associations did not permit playing instruments or singing indoors as normal. Accomodations were made to perform virtually, to spread out in the auditorium, and then to practice outdoors when the weather permitted.

So, that made last night, May 26th, an exceptionally special night for Mrs. Krueger, Mrs. Meir, and their Belleville High School Band and Choir students. It was the first public performance since early 2020 Pep Band sessions at home basketball games. The beautiful night in Library Park included opportunities for the seniors to showcase their talents one last time. The concert included duets and personal tributes to grandparents, along with solos to feature our soon-to-be graduates.

Thank you to the parents, staff, and community who came out to support our Wildcats!
