SPRING CHORUS INFORMATION
Congratulations to the 4th and 5th grade chorus for their wonderful concerts last week. We wanted to share some information about the spring session of chorus.
The new session of chorus will begin Friday, January 26, 2024.
Students who participated in the fall session of chorus and wish to continue do not need to fill out another permission slip.
Students who do not want to continue to sing in the spring session of chorus need to bring in a written note from an adult at home (or ask the adult to send an email) with the request to stop participating in chorus. Notes and emails should be addressed Mrs. Holster and Ms. Steinbach.
Students who did not sing in the winter concert and wish to join the spring session of chorus should ask Mrs. Holster or Miss Steinbach for a permission slip.
Spring chorus will have two concerts, one in March and another in June. The March concert is an All-District Chorus Concert with both the middle and high school choruses. The June concert is the Jordan/Jackson Elementary School concert with the band, keyboard, and orchestra.
We look forward to sharing brand new music with families and the community this spring.
Mrs. Holster and Ms. Steinbach
