Rockenbaugh Elementary Choir (REC) is Rockenbaugh Elementary School's 3rd and 4th grade choir. This group meets weekly after school until 4:00pm.
Our club works around two main philosophies:
Anyone can sing.
Progress, not perfection.
Singing is a skill and takes practice to improve - just like ANY other skill. In REC, we work on the skills to grow as a singing musician. REC provides students the opportunity to work as part of a group and see how they can make a change within that group with how much effort they put in. I hope my choirs will not only excel musically, but also grow into a group of well-rounded individuals. Singing changes lives.
Students cannot individually make-up the activities that occur in a choir rehearsal. Therefore it is of the utmost importance that students are at ALL rehearsals. If a student has 3 or more total absences (excused or unexcused) in a semester, that student may not have had adequate time to learn the material for our performances. If it is determined that a student is not prepared for a performance, they may be asked to refrain from singing with our group. Remember - 3 rehearsals is about 1/3 of our rehearsal time!
Choir members are expected to be present for each concert. If your student is unable to attend a performance, please email me (rebecca.brinkman@southlakecarroll.edu) at least 24 hours beforehand. If a student misses two or more performances without adequate notice, they will not be invited to our end of the year party.
