Holiday concert
The Tortolita Middle School Orchestra held its 25th Annual
Community Concert Friday. The students played at the Life Care
Center and the Foothills Mall. The orchestra is comprised of almost
50 students in seventh and eighth grade.
Diane Abrams, Orchestra Director for Tortolita Middle School,
began the tradition 25 years ago as an opportunity to share with
the community the importance of the arts as well as engage students
in a service-learning project where they learn the importance of
community service and experience the joy of sharing their
talent.
In addition to performing for the residents of the Life Care
Center, students presented each resident with a personally made
ornament.
