Good afternoon, all –
I hope this message finds you
well. We are one week away from Spring Break!
The Honors Choir team of
directors congratulates the following students who were selected as soloists
for our upcoming performances:
“Birdsong”: Lily Doran
(Russell) and Joanna Smith (Paxton Keeley)
“Sing”: Singing solo: Camryn
Criblez (Cedar Ridge)
Rap solo: Joseph Jones (Russell)
Thank you to all those who
auditioned for these solos. Our pool of talent and hard work made this decision
difficult!
April 5 Information:
For many years, the Columbia
Public Schools 5th Grade Honors Choir has been invited to perform at
the beautiful Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in downtown Kansas City.
This is an honor and an exciting performance opportunity for the Honors Choir
singers each year.
- This year’s trip to Kansas City will be Friday, April 5th.
Below is important information pertaining to the trip and our itinerary.
- I have attached necessary forms that must be completed
and signed by parents and students in all appropriate places in order for
students to attend. Hard copies will be sent home with all students at
next week’s rehearsal. You may also submit these electronically directly
to me by printing, signing, and scanning as PDF.
·
Students should
wear their Honors Choir t-shirt or a school shirt with jeans/leggings/khakis
during the day.
·
Students should
plan to bring a small drawstring bag to carry their concert attire in: black
bottoms, black shoes, black socks/tights, white collared shirt, cardigan.
Ties will be collected following our April 2nd performance at BHS
and distributed in KC. All cardigans and ties will be collected following the
performance in Kansas City.
·
Students may
bring books and devices for the bus ride, but they will be responsible for
keeping track of them. If they can stand to not bring electronic
devices, that would be best.
·
Students
DO NOT need to bring any money with them.
All food and tours are at no cost to them.
·
Students may
bring a water bottle and snacks if they want. We will provide lunch,
light snacks and bottled water after the museum tour, and dinner.
