Lettering in Choir

The letterman jacket is a wearable award representation of a student's achievements in an organization. 

LETTER JACKET

MUSIC LYRE 

Awarded to any Choir student who has previously lettered in Choir.

• The student must maintain satisfactory citizenship/conduct and academic average.

• Lettering surveys will be handed out after the final concert of the year, and students will receive their letterman jackets in October of the following school year. Juniors planning to receive their points for their fourth year of participation in choir will sign a contract of participation for the following school year, so they can receive their letterman jacket for their senior year.
