White thanked everyone who took part, as well as those students who created tickets, the program, posters, and helped set up for the concert. She noted the Angel Tree fund-raiser: students wrote their names on paper ornaments, with wishes they would like fulfilled for the KDSS music program, such as gently-used music books, drum sticks, and financial donations. Members of the audience were encouraged to take ornaments and send in their donations. White also reminded parents and guardians of the website for news, assignments and events, at www.knightsmusic.blogspot.com The music class will be taking its concert on the road, performing Thursday, Dec. 16, at 2 p.m. at Trillium Court.
