News for Kendall Elementary School

Kendall students earn local Symphony in Color awards, advance to state

Posted: Feb 07, 2019 by Patricia Gibson, Communications Director

Congratulations to these Kendall students who earned recognition in the county Symphony in Color competition, sponsored by the Gamma Rho chapter of Tri Kappa philanthropic sorority:

• Evan Fisher, first grade, Most Promising Award
• Leyna Greenwood, first grade, First Place for first grade
• Johnny Ortiz Juarez, second grade, Second Place for second grade
• Liam Weaver, second grade, Third Place for second grade
• Madelynn Boogar, fourth grade, Second Place for fourth grade

We are so proud of these talented young artists and are grateful for the work of their outstanding art teacher, Karen Fry, to provide opportunities for our students every day!

Art works chosen in the local competition, which is open to all elementary students in the county, will continue on to the state level Symphony in Color competition. More than 30,000 students in grades one through six participate in the annual statewide competition, presented by the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra Association along with the Ronald McDonald House Charities.

State level judging is taking place this week.

State Gold Ribbon winners' art works will be on display at the Hilbert Circle Theatre from Feb. 21 through March 24. Following that, all 100 finalists' art works will be on display at the Indiana State Museum from March 30 through May 5.

Each year five musical selections are chosen from the current ISO season, and art teachers across the state utilize the selections in a special activity in which students produce artwork inspired by the music played for them.

This year’s musical selections:

• "Fanfare" from "Also Sprach Zarathustra" by Richard Strauss
• "Jupiter" from "The Plants" by Gustav Holst
• "From Earth to the Moon and Beyond", written by James Beckel, former Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra Principal, in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the moon landing
• "Scherzo" from "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by Felix Mendelssohn
• "Main Title" from "Star Wars" by John Williams
