December 18 Update

December 18, 2017
Good afternoon, Honors Choir Families!

I hope all is well with you and your loved ones during this festive time of year as we count down the days and celebrate the holidays!

A few details about tomorrow evening’s performance:

*NO AFTER-SCHOOL REHEARSAL TOMORROW AFTERNOON, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 19. Thank you for taking this time to prepare your singer for the evening’s performance (i.e. snack/dinner, mental down time, etc.) We appreciate you encouraging your singer to focus during the performance for the best possible experience.

* Call time for singers is 6:15pm in the Hickman High School Choir room. The choir room is located on the northeast corner of Hickman’s campus directly across the side from the Dairy Queen. The performance will begin at 7:00pm in the Hickman HS auditorium. Students should be dropped off in the choir room, and parents should find their seat in the auditorium during choral warm-up.

*Students should wear all uniform pieces for the performance. This includes solid black from waist to toe, a solid white top with a collar for the gold tie, and the burgundy cardigan they were given in October.

* I have attached the schedule for next semester. Please notify me in advance of any absences, late arrivals, or early pick-ups.

Happy, happy Holidays from the team of directors for the CPS 5th Grade Honors Choir! It is a joy and a privilege to work with such a fantastic group of students! We’ll see you in 2018!
