Ms. M. Levy-Roberts
Welcome to the Culture Club website! Culture Club meets every Tuesday after school in Room 205 with Mrs. Levy-Roberts. Each month we focus on different cultures through music, food, videos, movies, and other activities. The goal of Culture Club is to show the importance of all cultures and that we can come together to learn from each other. By learning about different cultures, we may even find out how much we may have in common! Come and stop by - all are welcome!
Each month focuses on a different group:
September - Latino Heritage Month
October - Italian American Heritage Month
November - Native American Heritage Month
December - Celebrate Your Heritage Month
January - German American Heritage Month
February - African American / Caribbean Heritage Month
March - National Women's History Month (honoring women from different backgrounds)/ Irish American Heritage Month
April - Jewish American Heritage Month
May - Asian American/Pacific American Heritage Month
June - Scandinavian American Heritage Month / Polish American Heritage Month

Jazz Band
Advisor
Mr. N. Coacci
The Jazz Band is an auditioned group of select students in 6th, 7th and 8th grade. The ensemble performs in both the winter and spring concerts, as well as community events when possible. Interested 6th-8th grade students playing alto sax, tenor sax, baritone sax, trumpet, drums, guitar, piano, and bass must audition in September. Unlike other clubs, appropriate attendance is the only way the ensemble can be successful. Frequent absences can and will affect a student’s participation in the winter and spring concerts.
