Dear Honors Choir Families:
It was great to see so many of you at the parent meeting on Tuesday evening! If something came up and you were unable to attend, this email
should help. You are always welcome to email me with questions, comments, or
concerns. The team of directors is excited to have your singer in the Honors
Choir! We appreciated the talent and enthusiasm from the group yesterday, and
we are looking forward to helping them develop their singing habits and skills
individually and as an ensemble this year.
At the parent meeting, we announced some of the details
about the October 7th performance at the Missouri School Board
Association conference. The group will perform at 1:00pm on Saturday,
October 7th. Dress rehearsal at Tan-Tar-A begins at 12:00pm.
It will take us up to 2 hours by bus to get to Lake of the Ozarks, so we plan
on leaving in the morning between 9:00 and 9:30am, giving us sufficient
time to feed the Honors Choir students a sack lunch and allow time for other
preparations. We will leave from West Middle School the morning of October 7th.
Unfortunately, because this performance is at a conference of a professional
dues-paying organization, all parents not belonging to the Missouri School
Board Association are not eligible to attend. I will keep you posted about the
need for parent chaperones. We are hoping to have a pool party after the
performance at the Tan-Tar-A Resort Water Park. We are planning to return to
Columbia between 4:30 and 5:00pm. Because Mr. Melton was unable to attend
yesterday’s rehearsal, more details will be announced as they become available.
If you have any questions or concerns about this performance, please contact me
directly.
Honors Choir Handbooks were distributed at Tuesday’s parent
meeting. The online version can be found on our blog at http://cps5honorschoir.blogspot.com/
Below is information about our annual fundraiser. If you
were not at the parent meeting yesterday evening, I will send a fundraiser
packet to your child’s home school to be sent home ASAP.
