Music Qualifiers
We all know how amazing the Ferris Music department is! It’s a lot of fun when others think so, too. This weekend our Choir, Band, and Orchestra programs had over 80 entries compete in the regional Solo and Ensemble contest.
Our students performed wonderfully and represented Ferris so well! From those entries, 61 qualified for State either as winners or alternates.
Congratulations to our incredible music students and teachers. We are so proud of you!
