Post date: Oct 07, 2015 10:11:7 PM

Good afternoon friends! A few Chorale updates for you~

Your kids are fabulous!

We’ve had a great week. I love the energy they bring. Rehearsals continue next week at lunch time. Please remind your student they need to memorize “Fum, Fum, Fum” asap. Students have bright yellow lyric sheets (& cds) for Chorale music and 5/6 Christmas Concert music. Excellence unto the Lord is our goal!

You’re fabulous too! Next After School Rehearsal

Big thanks to you parents for the swift, efficient pick up last week after school. I received many helpful emails in regards to special places students needed to go, and carpool pick up by the red doors went smoothly. Thanks for helping me keep our kids safe and accounted for. The next after school rehearsal is Tuesday, October 27th. That’s also our day to premiere our new shirts. There will be a sea of red swag throughout the halls!

WHCS Music Website & Chorale Updates

You are on the website now. There is a special Chorale tab at the top where you can get all current & past emails, calendars, schedules and information quickly. You can also find Chorale on the left side content bar. MOST IMPORTANTLY FOR TODAY: Please subscribe to the Chorale UPDATES. This is the last email I will send you. All further information will come thru your subscription to the updates.

Washington Square Date Confirmed & Concert Distinctions

It’s official! We will be boldly proclaiming the birth of our Savior on Thursday evening, December 3rd @ 6:00pm, in the Sears courtyard. The tradition lives on! For those of you new to Chorale, I’d like to explain the difference between our performance at Washington Square and our complete Christmas Concert at school. Our time at the mall is quick- approx 20 minutes of music, including both Chorale and our Jr High Ensemble. At the end of their songs, it has been a joy to carol and worship together with you, the “audience”. Proclaiming Jesus in such a public setting is a moment I look forward to every year. FOR HIS GLORY! It’s fast & fabulous!

Our concert at school, Friday, Dec. 11th, will open with both Chorale & the Ensemble, followed by ALL 5th & 6th graders. This festive program of celebration generally runs an hour and 15 minutes maximum.

Black pants & shoes needed by Thursday, Dec. 3rd.

Both girls and boys will need black pants be worn with Chorale t-shirts at Washington Square and the evening WHCS Christmas Concert. (Please note students will be in regular school clothes for our morning assembly.) Fyi, our band students also perform in black.

Final reminder about following us for the latest and greatest quick snippets of all things musical at our school. Chorale is often included in these postings.

Thank you for your prayers as I interact with your children. We continue to press on for excellence as unto the Lord. Given our short time together, every minute counts. I would really appreciate prayers covering our times together. Thanks so much!

Have a wonderful day and rest of the week!
