When:
Every Tuesday morning from 7:45 a.m. - 8:15 a.m. Students should enter the main office door (door #1) at 7:40 a.m. and report directly to the music room. Students can put coats and backpacks in the hallway outside my room (on the wall).
Our first choir rehearsal will be on Tuesday, September 22nd. Please feel free to join the following week if you miss the first practice.
Requirements:
Be on time for rehearsals (7:40 a.m. sign-in).
This is very important, as we move quite fast in choir. Arriving late can cause students to miss warm ups and important announcements.
Attend all rehearsals and concerts unless excused (A written note, Remind message, or an e-mail to: spugia@egrps.org).
Commit to the group!
Use critical thinking and good musicianship during each rehearsal.

If your child is assigned to a post that will conflict with choir rehearsals, they are encouraged to find a sub for Tuesday mornings. It is okay if they cannot find someone to fill their post. If they have any questions, they may talk to Mrs. Tinholt (wtinholt@egrps.org) or let Ms. Pugia know. It is possible to do both!
