UGHS Orchestra
Boosters!
The UGHS Orchestra Booster Club is a non-profit, dues-free organization that works to support the activities of the UGHS Orchestra. This includes fundraising, event planning, and publicity. Meetings will be scheduled within the next month and pushed out to parents regularly. OUR FIRST PARENT MEETING will be August 12, 2025 at 7:00 PM in the Orchestra Room at UGHS. I look forward to working with you!
Orchestra Fees
Please return your student's $60 orchestra fee to Mr. Wright ASAP. T-shirts will be in during November, and students will not receive their shirt if they have not paid their Orchestra Fee. Contact michael.wright@henry.k12.ga.us with any questions.
Welcome back!
As we start a new school year, please check on your student's instrument and accessories, and reach out with any questions. I have a list of vendors that we trust and can make suggestions as to brands and purchases. I can't wait to see your students improve over the year!
Remind Codes
Beginning Violin (4th) - @ughsbv2526

Private Lessons
As students develop their schedules for the year, please consider private lessons for your students. Private instruction can help students improve rapidly and explore music they won't have opportunity to look at in my class. Follow the link below to see a list of options, or use Google to seek out opportunities!
All of these songs were part of a huge scientific project to which I have devoted my entire life. Namely, the attempt to prolong adolescence beyond all previous limits.
