Happy Summer!

Greetings!  We hope that you're having a great summer and that you're ready to get back to East and back to singing!  As many of you know, Ms. El-Kareh is moving to Minnesota.  We wish her the best in her new endeavors.

We are very excited to welcome Ms. Barnett to East!!!  She student-taught with us a couple of years ago, and she's back to stay. :-)

We'll see you soon!
Mrs. Clifford and Ms. Barnett

So long, farewell...

Hey folks, Ms. El-Kareh here...

If you haven't heard, I am moving to Minneapolis, Minnesota in August. I will miss you all very much, and I'd like you to know that you have had an important effect on my life. Best wishes!!
