NO TJI! REHEARSAL TODAY, JANUARY 2nd

posted Jan 2, 2012 6:29 AM by Tyler Finley

THIS IS A COPY OF THE POST I JUST MADE ON FACEBOOK:

I'm very sorry to have to do this, but Mr. Finley is sick today. 

This means that we are not able to have rehearsal today.  I was really looking forward to getting back into the swing of things with a day of show choir, but it will have to wait a few days.  I'm going to check the calendar and see if I can get a short vocal rehearsal in this week...maybe Friday after school.  

Please spread the news and message me if you have any questions.

Mr. Finley 

Metro Fest - Monday, October 3, 2011

posted Sep 13, 2011 7:36 AM by Tyler Finley

It's hard to believe, but Metro Fest is right around the corner!  For those that are new, Metro Fest is an event held ea
 
This year Metro Fest is going to be held at North High School.  
 
The students will leave from West on school busses that afternoon (around 12:30) for rehearsal with the students from the other schools and the guest clinicians.  Everyone will remain at North until after the concert is finished.  The concert begins at 7:30 PM
 
Dinner will be served to the students while we are at North from Grinders.  The cost is $5 which can be paid to Mrs. Dunnegan or Mr. Finley.  The students can also opt to bring their own sack dinner if they choose.
 
After the concert students are released to go home with their parents.  We will be bringing just one bus back to West for students whose parents will not be able to attend the concert and need a ride back to West.  However, we do encourage everyone to attend this concert and take their students with them at the conclusion.
 
The admission for Metro Fest is $5 for adults and $3 for seniors and students.  With the exception of state large group contest in May, this is the only concert where admission will be charged.
