THIS WEEK IN CHOIR
Hello Choir Families,
So sorry I did not get this out sooner. I was at a conference Friday and spent yesterday at the high school choir concert. I saw several of our students at the event! It was so great seeing our former Eagles shining up there on stage. For extra credit, you just need to bring a program or a note saying you were there.
Desserts with the Director Tuesday Sept. 24th 6-7:30 p.m.
This will be a casual event for you to learn more about what we do in choir, ask all the questions, and eat yummy desserts. Please let us know if you can make it.

SIX Mega Mix Rehearsals - Girls Only
Rehearsals for this event will be Friday only at 8:10 a.m. Students with a 0 period must go to class and have permission to come to rehearsal. Students who don’t check in with their teacher or are not in good standing in their class will not be allowed to participate in this event. Classes come before extra curricular activities.
Costumes
I’ve been talking with the kids in class about costumes, and we will be doing fittings pretty soon. The boosters will be supplying some of the costume pieces, and students will provide the rest. If you find you have extra of anything, please consider sending that in so we make sure everyone has what they need.

Lip Synch Battle
This is our best and certainly most fun fundraiser of the year. The choir department hosts a lip sync battle open to the whole school. Students put acts together and perform them for a live audience and judges. Then, we post it online for further judging, and the winner gets $100! Participation is optional for students, but we ask that if they don’t want to be in the show they purchase a ticket and come support. We will need parents to help with this event and will discuss in more detail at Desserts with the Director on Sept. 24th.
Website Registration and Donations
Thank you to those of you who have already registered and donated to choir! If you donate before Sept. 20th, you get a little bit of a discount and if not, you can set up a payment schedule to spread it out. Remember anything is appreciated and don’t forget to set up Raise Right. Student grades have been updated for this assignment, so you can double check on Aeries that everything is finished.
Kylie’s Show!
Our choreographer, Kylie, has a show coming up and would love for the students to come see it! The Rose Center Theater in Westminster, CA is presenting “Encore! A Musical Revue of Broadway’s Best” on September 28th and 29th. This revue brings together performers from the Rose Center Theater to celebrate musical theater and the many musicals that have been performed here. Kylie will be performing numbers from 42nd Street, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Sweeney Todd, The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Mary Poppins, and Oklahoma, so you won’t want to miss this fun show! Check out https://rosetheater.booktix.com/dept/RCT/e/Encore for more information on the show and to buy tickets. Hope to see you there!
