Chorus Updates: 4-20-2018

​7th & 8th Grade - Six Flags: May 4th
Our spring contest is coming up soon!  Please remind your students that participation in the field trip includes an adjudicated contest performance that will also serve as a summative grade this marking period.  We are practicing our focus in every class (holding our great choral posture and staying silent until at least 2 seconds past the end of the song).  If your student is still struggling with singing their own part, please encourage them to practice with the tracks on Schoology (particularly for Rise Up in Festive Song and Ukrainian River Song)/

All Students - Spring Concert: May 16th
7:00pm at the John Dickinson H.S. Auditorium. It should be a great show, combining our spring contest music with some fun and empowering pop music. This is a mandatory, summative grade assignment so please make sure you have it on the calendar! 

6th Grade - HersheyPark: May 18th
Our spring contest is coming up soon!  Please remind your students that participation in the field trip includes an adjudicated contest performance that will also serve as a summative grade this marking period.  We are practicing our focus in every class (holding our great choral posture and staying silent until at least 2 seconds past the end of the song).  If your student is still struggling with singing their own part, please encourage them to practice with the tracks on Schoology (particularly for Shenandoah and Jambo)!

Thank You!
Thank you for the donations of Kleenex and Pencils!  The students and I very much appreciate your generosity.  If you haven't donated yet and still could, I am still accepting donations.
