Supe's On: Brandon Valley Fine Arts delivers outstanding performances

Brandon Valley’s rich tradition of Fine Arts has been on full display throughout the 2023 Winter Concert Season. Through their dedication, passion, and talent, students and staff have delivered outstanding performances, some of which brought the audience to their feet. The positive impact of Fine Art programs extends far beyond our school walls. The Winter Concert season has served as an opportunity to bring together students, families, and community members. A special Thank You to Terry and Laurie Gullickson for the commemorative display highlighting the history of our Performing Arts Center. 

With that, there is no better way to summarize the Winter Concert Season than to share a personal experience. At a moment of silence between songs at the BVIS Winter Concert, 3-year-old Ava exclaimed, “Wow! That was awesome!” I couldn’t help but smile, as this young concert-goer gave the most genuine feedback to the band and all those within earshot knew exactly how she felt about their spectacular performance. From my perspective, Ava was spot-on!

As the holiday season and new year approaches, we can reflect on the challenges and opportunities 2023 presented us within the Brandon Valley School District. There is much to be proud of as we reflect on this past year, but there is always work to be done as we continually strive for growth and improvement within our schools. Winter Break begins with a two-hour early dismissal on Thursday, Dec. 21 and classes resume on Wednesday, Jan. 3.

From our family to yours – We wish you a safe and happy holiday season!

Go Lynx!
