January 28 Update

January 28, 2020

Hello, Honors Choir Families!

I hope you had another relaxing long weekend!

A few reminders:

·         T-shirt update: we are sold out of Adult Small-sized t-shirts. Other sizes are still available while supplies last. If you would like to purchase a t-shirt, please send $10 cash or check (made payable to Columbia Public Schools) to rehearsal with your singer. You may also send checks only to the home school music teacher and email me what size your child would like.

·         On Saturday, February 1, there will be a viewing of a MET Opera simulcast at Forum 8 Theatre of George Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess. This is an optional event, and a limited number of students may attend. A sign-up link will not be sent out. Due to mature/violent content in the production, all Honors Choir singers must be accompanied by an adult. If you would like to attend this production with your Honors Choir singer, please email me directly.

·         For weekly rehearsals, students should arrive to West Middle School no earlier than 3:45pm. The team of directors come from different directions all over town and cannot guarantee your child will be supervised until 3:45 each week. Singers should be picked up from WMS no later than 5:20pm following weekly rehearsals. Students who are consistently picked up late may not be eligible to continue membership in the ensemble. Thank you for respecting the evening commitments of the team of directors. 

·         If your student will be absent from any Honors Choir rehearsal or event, please email me as soon as possible.

·         All communications sent to the distribution list are also available on our blog: http://cps5honorschoir.blogspot.com/

·         If you have any questions or concerns, please email me directly.

Have a wonderful week!
