I’m not sure what has happened but each grade is missing volunteers in many areas. We can’t pull off concerts and dress rehearsals without parents behind the scenes. Please take a moment and look at the signup genius tab at the top of this page. Areas of greatest concern are chaperones, locker decorations, and ushers for each show. Please find a way to give us an hour or two. Thanks, Mrs. Armington

Dear Parents (of Choir Boys),                                                                                                      9/19/22

On the choir calendar you see that the Just the Guys Event is coming up on Thursday, October 6.  This will no longer be our JTG’s Concert it will be a party and rehearsal time for all of our boys and the high school guys to get together to practice for Swing Fry (Sat.  November 12).  The boys will ride buses over to the high school at 3:45 and stay from 4- 5:30.  Please plan on picking your child up at 5:30 and no later.  That will help us a lot.  We will have pizza, pop, and dessert for them and play some mixer games together then rehearse on stage our two Swingfry numbers.   This is a mandatory event for all boys.   

We are adding a JtG’s Concert into our schedule.  It will take place in early February.  We are still working on the date so I’ll have to pass that on to you at a later time.  Please check the choir website for updates on that show.

                                                                      Sincerely, Mrs. Armington

Thank you to Mrs Manglos and Mrs. Norwood for working with Both groups of kids. With the work of all of our students they put on an extraordinary finale after 4 days of work. Here are some pics from the finale:

Note from Mrs. Norwood;

Last call for show choir camp registrations (form in comments) – if you don’t mail it today you’ll miss the July 1 deadline. And you won’t get to sing and dance with me & Wilson . And you’ll be sad and end up living in a van down by the river.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Mrs. Burnstine thank you! https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MLGzEdJRY2EsSyhYWJzpsGv93XP5mIjX

Mrs Byers thank you! https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HU0KyYiXCUTmZ_RKwq8_IC3T6x0S5NUv

We still need 2 6th grade chaperones for show 2. We need a 7th or 8th grade chaperone for show one and two. Please sign up or email me if you can help. Remember free tickets go out to chaperones.

For those of you getting a free ticket (chaperones, photographers, and Locker decorations), please ask your child to get them by Friday. Do not wait until you get to the box office. They may be gone! We are selling fast! Thanks, Mrs. A
