Spring concerts at the Bennington-Rutland Supervisory Union schools lift individual voices and collective spirits. The concerts usher out the school year and welcome summertime for families and friends.
This year’s mix of magical musical moments started in early May with a performance from all grades at the Currier Memorial School. In mid-month the spotlight shifted to Sunderland Elementary with a concert on May 20th and The Dorset School with performances spread over two nights on the 20th and 21st.
Looking ahead, the Manchester Elementary Middle School opens its doors to the public for its Spring Concert on Thursday, May 29th, at 6 pm. Vocals and instrumental performances can also be heard at the Mettawee Community School as it brings down the curtain on BRSU spring concerts on Thursday, June 5th at 6:30 pm.
