New Science Building Taking Shape At Julian High
David Schlottman Superintendent/Principal, Julian High School
This week we’ve had a major development in our science building construction: the wall frames went up! Of course, a lot of important construction has been going on prior to this: the old building was demolished, the site was graded, the slab poured, and the Little
Theater has been going through its “seismic retrofit” process. The site has been a beehive of activity since the construction crews showed up in August! It is true, however, that when the “wall frames go up” the visual impact is immense! The building is taking shape before our eyes!!
We’ve had no major surprises as the construction has progressed—which is very good news! The project is “on schedule” and should be completed by the end of June of this year (2014). We hope to move in over the summer vacation and have it ready for students as they come back in early August. In the meantime, we’ll be having a Citizens’ Oversight Committee meeting next Tuesday, February 4th at 6 PM in Room 4 at the High School. Please join us at this meeting if you’re interested in hearing the latest construction developments! Citizens’ Oversight Committee Meeting - Tuesday, February 4th, 6 PM, Room 4 at Julian High School. Rudy Rikansrud and Bob Redding—two of our Citizens’ Oversight Committee Members. We were very happy that they were able to attend one of our weekly construction meetings

Music On The Mountain
Beautiful Music In The Library - February 4 The Julian Branch Library and the Friends of the Julian library are pleased to be presenting concert violinist, Flávia Pisco, as the February performer for Music on the Mountain. The performance will take place on Tuesday, February 4 at 6 PM. Flávia comes from a family of musicians. She began studying violin at age 14 with her father, violinist and conductor Ayrton Pisco. He is the Principal of the Music School of Brasilia. Her mother is the concertmaster of the national orchestra in Brasilia, Brazil. She was also the first black woman to be a concertmaster in Brazil. Her younger brother Ayrton C. Pisco began playing at age 3 and competing in the international level at age 12 and at age 18, continues to be an international contender. She also has a 16-year-old sister. Flávia was the concertmaster of Art Brasilia Orchestra, where she also played as a soloist on several occasions. From 2005 to 2008, Flávia studied music education at the University of Brasília. She was first violin in the Gassouline Quartet, and played with the Chamber Orchestra of the University of Brasília, in which she participated in concerts all over Brazil and Germany. From early in life, she has experimented with both classical and popular music. Her experience ranges from playing in professional orchestras lead by famous conductors like Ira Levin and Kurt Masur, to accompanying famous Brazilian popular singers, such as Roberta Sa and Ney Matogrosso. Pisco blends this background into a charming presentation of classical and popular solo music, which she can perform in the standard stationary position, or she is often called the strolling violinist as she weaves through the audience during her performances. Flávia’s beauty and flair add that special “something” to make any event unique Flávia finished her undergraduate studies at University of Brasilia (Brazil). Upon coming to the United States, she became the violin teaching-assistant at the
this past week. They had a chance to tour the main building site and also see the progress being made on the Little Theater!
