Happy Holidays! I am headed to Kansas for a much-needed visit with the family. I hope all of you are able to relax and bit over the next two weeks as well. The kids are doing great, and I’m sure would be happy to perform for you at any family functions you attend. 😂
The calendar has many updates this week, so please take a look and adjust your home calendar accordingly.
Choir Pictures
The students will be taking choir yearbook pictures on Friday January 17th during class. They will also take individuals and buddy pictures. These will be available for purchase and we will let you know how to order them. Students must have their costumes and shoes in class on this day. Most students have them here already but they need to be placed in garment bags. And we still have a few missing their shoes.
Scott Smeltzer will be taking the all group photos (thank you Scott) and we are looking for a few photographers to help with individuals and buddy pictures. It would be 8:45-11:20 and again at 1:30-2:20. Scott will set of all the lights so you just need your camera.
Please email me at shwallace@losal.org if you are available to help with that.
Sound Check Shout Out!
Sound Check wrapped their 5th seasonal concert last night. They have done a fantastic job representing the program this season. Their musicianship and professionalism at such a young age is very inspiring to our community. We are all very proud of you!
Alex in Soul Men
When we return from break, Soul Men will welcome a new choreographer Alex! He will teach the boys one of their numbers for competition. Alex is currently dancing for Disney and is an alumni of both McAuliffe and LAHS choir programs. We are excited to have him back working with us again.
All District Choral Festival
We finally have a date! This will take place at Cottonwood on Monday March 10th. You won’t want to miss this event. I’ll send ticket information as soon as I have it.
Outside of Class Rehearsals
For our next concert and competition the students will be performing with a professional band accompanying them. For this reason, our band leader will be joining the students in class the week of Feb. 3rd so she can start rehearsing the band. Students will rehearse with the band at dress rehearsal on Feb. 10th and we will have a pick up rehearsal on March 12th for the students who are competing on the 13th.
