We’re almost done!

The end of this school year is quickly approaching! Parents, you should have received an email last night about this week. We have our Dress Rehearsal tomorrow, Tuesday, May 6th, after school until 5:30 pm. Please plan to pick up your child at 5:30. Our Spring Concert is next Monday, May 12 at 7:00 pm. You won’t want to miss this fun, end-of-the year program! Students should report at 6:15 pm. Uniform is red chorus shirts and nice blue jeans (no holes, rips, or tears!) with tennis shoes or other closed-toe shoes. Please remember to send in a written note if your child is unable to participate in either the rehearsal or concert.

The 7th Grade Chorus heads to Tennessee this weekend for a performance in Knoxville and fun at Dollywood!! A big Thank-You in advance for the chaperones who will be joining us this Friday and Saturday!! We appreciate you!! (Picture promised after our trip! 🙂 )

And, since I haven’t reported in awhile I don’t want to leave out our 8th graders . . . We had a fabulous trip to Walt Disney World in March and appreciated the teacher and parent chaperones who joined us!! The students gave an awesome 25 minute performance as part of the Performing Arts OnStage program in Epcot during the Flower and Garden Festival. So proud of this 8th grade group!! I will certainly miss them next year!! Here’s a backstage photo after our performance…

Hope to see you all at our Spring Concert next week!
