I'm your host, Superintendent Anthony Godfrey. It is music that will warm your heart, make you smile, and maybe even make you want to sing along.On this episode of the Supercast, we share some sweet sounds of the season performed by Jordan School District students. First, hear from Julie Barnson and Dorrelyn Smith, who produced the Terra Linda Tones performance. Enjoy “African Noel” and then “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” with a Bruce Springsteen twist.We're here with Dorrelyn and Julie at Terra Linda Elementary School preparing for tonight's holiday concert. I'm very excited to be here. I've been trying to get here for two years. My schedule finally lined up and I've heard great things about this program. How hard you work and how much extra effort you guys put into making this a really special night.Dorrelyn Smith:It's a great program. Terra Linda's Tones have been around, well I've been doing this for about 14 years now here. It's an incredible group and I couldn't do it without Julie here, Mrs. Barnson. I'm so grateful to have her as my sidekick or I'm hers, I'm not sure which.Anthony Godfrey:Tell me what this event means to you both.Julie Barnson:Well, we work in the mornings, two days a week, and these kids, they never actually look at a piece of music. They are learning the songs by ear and by memorization and we've got parts, they're good.Dorrelyn Smith:They dance, they sing, they speak parts. It's just an incredible program. It's something that a lot of these kids would never have the opportunity to do if it wasn't for us and music is so important.Anthony Godfrey:Well, I can't wait to see it because they- just getting to meet the kids a few minutes ago, they are so excited they're about to burst.Dorrelyn Smith:Yes, they are.Julie Barnson:They're very nervous too because they're like, I know all the kids at school, that wasn't hard.It's all the parents, I don't know them.Dorrelyn Smith:Yes, we've heard that a time or two.Anthony Godfrey:Well, when I walked in, I was afraid that I was late because I had trouble finding a parking spot 25 minutes in advance. I walked in and the place is full. I've been to a lot of programs, I've never seen a place full half an hour beforehand. So that's pretty exciting.Dorrelyn Smith;We had parents arrive at Anthony Godfrey:You've got to get those good spots.Julie Barnson:Heck yeah, you don't mess around.Anthony Godfrey:Well, I have a good spot in there I know. I'm going to head in, I'm really excited to see this performance and I can't wait to see the smiles on the faces of the kids when they perform tonight.Dorrelyn Smith:We're excited.Julie Barnson:We are.Anthony Godfrey:Thank you for the invitation. I'll let you get back to your prep.Assistant Principal Joshua Brothers:Ladies and gentlemen, fathers and mothers, uncles and aunts, grandmothers and grandfathers, perhaps even a great-grandmother and great-grandfather. We are so excited to welcome you to Terra Linda Elementary School for our Christmas concert with the Terra Linda Tones.We'd like to offer a very special thank you to our teachers who have helped lead this effort.

Do you know all the ways Jordan School District counselors can help you and your students? School counselors play such an important role in our schools. They provide parents with resources to help guide their children in academics. They provide support with the mental and social well-being of students in our schools. And if you are in the process of preparing a student for college, or just beginning the conversation of higher education, now is the perfect time to reach out to your child's counselor. We can assist with college applications and college readiness. I encourage parents and guardians to schedule an appointment and get to know your student's counselor. Together, counselors and parents can help develop plans and strategies for students to succeed long after they leave Jordan School District. Reach out! We're always here to help. You can find us and learn more at counseling.jordandistrict.org.Bingham High School Madrigals singing “Caroling, Caroling”:Caroling, caroling now we goChristmas bells are ringingCaroling, caroling through the snowChristmas bells are ringingJoyous voices sweet and clearSing the sad of heart to cheerDing, dong, ding, dongChristmas bells are ringingCaroling, caroling through the townChristmas bells are ringingCaroling, caroling up and downChristmas bells are ringingMark ye well the song we singGladsome tidings now we bringDing, dong, ding, dongChristmas bells are ringingCaroling, caroling, near and farChristmas bells are ringingFollowing, following yonder starChristmas bells are ringingSing we all this happy morn"Lo, the King of heav'n is born!"Ding dong, ding dongChristmas bells are ringingAnthony Godfrey:Thank you Bingham High School Madrigals.
