Hello, Honors Choir Families!
I hope you had a relaxing long weekend!
A few reminders:
- The next performance of the Honors Choir will be in
April due to the weather-related cancellation in December. Many more
details to follow in the coming weeks about our all-day trip to Kansas
City on Friday, April 3.
- 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.
- Check your calendar! 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 be sent out shortly.
Due to violent scenes in the production, all Honors Choir singers must
be accompanied by an adult.
- 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!
