8TH GRADE ONLY
Dear Parents and/or
Guardians,
I want to fill you in on all the details for this upcoming Monday, October 24th choir performance
for the 8th grade class only. We will be performing at the Forest Hills
Jazz Festival at The FH Fine Arts Center on Forest Hills Ave.
We will be having a pizza party and meeting at Crossroads
in the cafeteria around 5 PM before
the rehearsal and concert. We
will eat, drink, and be merry!!! Our
choir shirts ended up being a little cheaper than I thought so the extra money
will help with the pizza and I will pay the difference! If your child has NOT PAID FOR HIS/HER SHIRT
– please send that money in ASAP!
$13 Cash or Checks - made out to Northview Vocal Music!
THIS IS WHAT I NEED FROM PARENTS:
I NEED CHAPERONES and I will cover your ticket
price if you join! We have 97 students
so I need approximately 9 -10 parents to come with us! If you come early to
help with the dinner and clean up that would be great too! You can follow us in
your car if you don’t want to ride the bus but I do need at least 5 to ride the
bus – any takers????
I
NEED DESSERTS SENT IN FOR THE PIZZA PARTY – I will get pizza and water bottles,
but I cannot cover dessert – can you send some in PLEASE?? Those can be sent in
anytime on Monday! Again, we have approximately 97 students but only about 85
will be having dinner! Only … lol
We
will go to the choir room about 5:40 for warm-up and sing through our two choir
songs. At 6:15 we will board the
buses out front and be on our way to Forest Hills Fine Arts Center by 6:45
or so. The concert begins at 7PM and we
are the 2nd act. If you would like to join us, tickets are $5.00 at the door!!!
Students are to wear their choir
shirt, jeans, NO flip flops or
sweat pants. They can wear tennis shoes, boots, clogs, etc… just no sandals
with open toes. Jeans should be clean
without any rips.
We will return somewhere around 9-9:30pm but I will
have them call you as we leave the concert so that you don’t have to wait or so
YOU won’t be late. It will be a super
fun experience as we are only 1 of 2 middle school choirs performing! All the rest of the groups are HS or College
level choirs.
This is a required
performance so please be sure to get your child to Crossroads at least
by 5:45 unless they will be joining us for dinner at 5pm. Again, please be prepared to pick up your
child that evening around 9pm in Crossroads parking lot. Thanks a bunch! Questions or Concerns?
Contact me ASAP!!!

PS.
Students are welcome to stay after school with me instead of going home as long
as they have something to work on quietly in my room. I will be staying all
day!
