On Saturday, November 16, 2019, from 11:00 am until 2:00 pm, Cedarlane Academy Thunderbirds’ Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) will celebrate its Fall Family and Community Festival. On this fun-filled day, Cedarlane Academy parents, staff, and community members will get together to raise awareness about our school, promote our community and business partners, fund raise for various student clubs and school programs, and most of all, create a memorable day for everyone in attendance. We will have a variety of food, demonstrations, performances, and fun activities.

We are excited for Cedarlane’s continued growth and breadth of programs that prepare our students to become global leaders in a technologically advancing society. We strive for excellence and are the only school in our district that offers the Code To The Future Science Immersion Program for ALL K-8 students. We are also the only school in the district with its middle school students learning through the College Board’s Pre-AP (Advance Placement) Program. Pre-AP is offered as the Accelerated/Honors level program in Math and English Language Arts. In addition, our district was recently awarded the California School Board Association’s Golden Bell Award for our elementary and middle school dual immersion programs. Cedarlane Academy is the only school with Dual Language Immersion Programs offered in both Mandarin (6-8 grade) and in Korean (beginning in Kindergarten).

Our amazing Cedarlane teachers and advisors also facilitate a great deal of fun and enriching afterschool activities and clubs. Some of the programs we offer in addition to our team sports and activities, include afterschool art, music, dance, martial arts programs, yearbook/journalism club, and our award-winning STEM programs (Lego League Robotics, Science Olympiad for elementary and middle school, Mathletes, and Cyber-Patriot).

Funds raised through our Fall Festival will be used to support our students and teachers to purchase classroom materials, assist with educational field trips, purchase software and materials for our STEM programs, and to support the various organizations and enrichment programs.

Funding for all of our activities and programs that benefit the school is not always available though and takes a great deal of effort and volunteer involvement. To that end, we hope to get volunteer support assist with the various game booths we'll be running today.

Any possible donations including: items for raffling or auction, food or drinks, or even monetary donations, are also greatly appreciated! Since we are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations, all donations to our PTO are tax deductible subject to Federal IRS and California State Franchise Tax Board guidelines.

We appreciate your support of all the organizations and programs at Cedarlane Academy!!!

Volunteer at a Louisville Orchestra Concert!

TAKING RISKS AT PARISTOWN
Teddy Abrams is now working out the details of the first LO concert to be performed on SAT 2 NOV at the Old Foresters’ Paristown Hall. And as promised, he’s taking some chances and bringing new voices to our local soundscape. It always takes some musical courage and curiosity to follow Teddy into the embrace of his latest discovery. However, most of us have found that his taste is unerring and his enthusiasm can make the exploration a true joy. In this program, he surrounds the very new with the very familiar.

His program opens by ringing the Paristown rafters with the “Fanfare for the Common Man” by Aaron Copland. The piece is the shortcode definition of being American. It stacks up against our National Anthem, “God Bless America,” and any other of the patriotic favorites for simply making us feel proud of ourselves no matter what. The Fanfare seems to echo from city buildings and across wide-open spaces. How it never fails to straighten my shoulders is simply a mystery to me.

Next up is Samuel Barber’s “Second Essay for Orchestra” — a intimidating title that suggests an academic exercise. You might know Samuel Barber mainly for the hauntingly beautiful “Adagio for Strings,” heard in movies like Platoon. The Second Essay for Orchestra rivals its famous cousin in the beauty of the music for the string instruments but adds every color of the orchestra, growing and building on the original musical ideas until ending in a huge fanfare for the entire orchestra, only to be tagged at the very end by those vulnerable strings sailing out there alone. Strong, logical, beautiful, and thoughtful, the work was shaped by a clean-cut American romanticism.

Just when we’re getting into the grace and strength of our Americans, Teddy pulls out a tricky little number, only 6 minutes long, but still ground-breaking in its vigor and startling language. A nutty Yankee of the most creative sort, Charles Ives wrote “The Unanswered Question” back in 1906. We’re still trying to catch up to this visionary. The question screams in our bones as the trumpet brays it again and again, but the raging avalanche of answers never enough. Why indeed?

If you’re a regular at the LO, you may have heard a couple of works by Mason Bates that Teddy brought to past concerts. A list of awards and credentials (led by his Grammy-winning opera The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs and his position as the first composer-in-residence at the Kennedy Center) is a bit of a distraction when trying to discover more about Mason Bates. All that’s necessary is a dose of the sonic excitement he packs in his music. Mixing acoustic with the electronic, he composes music that risks actually becoming popular with orchestra audiences. He was named the most-performed contemporary orchestra composer and you’ll hear why. We get to hear his baroque-tinged thriller Auditorium. It’s exactly the piece you would have wanted to compose if you could.

Ellen Reid won a Pulitzer for her opera Prism. Even listening to the excepts on Reid’s website is surprisingly shattering. Complex and layered, her opera digs into places that can leave you gasping for breath. By contrast, the work on this program is fresh and bright. It’s titled Petrichor, which I’m delighted to discover is the word for that scent that rises from dry earth after a rain. Listening to the music of this woman makes me think she must be fearless. Link to Petrichor.

Teddy saved the last place on this program for another fearless innovator. Ludwig van Beethoven. He has the last word in this concert of courage, curiosity, and hope with the first and last movements of his Fifth Symphony.

So here’s a program that asks you to take a risk. Perhaps try something new. But most of all, it asks you to take the chance to rise up and be a truly romantic optimist. Shed a layer of skepticism… and bring a friend.
