The title might be translated as "Summer has come in" or "Summer has arrived",  The language is Middle English, more exactly Wessex dialect.  It is the oldest piece of six-part polyphonic music in existence.  Its composer is anonymous, possibly W. de Wycombe, and it is estimated to date from around 1260.

Thank you to the departing 8th grade students.  Many of you I hope to see regularly at Lassiter.  You helped make this a great three years for me and I have enjoyed working with you.  I’m proud of what we accomplished and hope you are also.

I hope you have a wonderful high school experience.  Please keep in touch.
