Due Dates:  


Performing Outfits:  

SEMESTER 1:

Pd. 2 Bass Clef Ensemble:

o   Adjustable waist tuxedo pants

o   Black dress shirt (buttoned at top!)

o   Black vest & tie

o   Black dress shoes and black socks (provide on own)

§  Example on Amazon

 

TWO OPTIONS--  Either:

1)     PREFERRED: purchase entire outfit (which includes tailored pants which can be altered free of charge by Savvi Formalwear in Raleigh).  This is the most convenient option and the least expensive if students will be in chorus for at least 3 semesters.  This will be measured at the school by staff from Savvi Formalwear. 

a.     Cost: $108.00 (plus PayPal fees)

OR

2)     Rent through the Choral Boosters.  The rental will operate on a “rent-to-own” option where once the outfit is rented 4 times (4 semesters), it will become property of the student. 

a.     Cost $35 per semester (Booster financial aid is available, if needed; see below); note—this cost could escalate in future years if costs to us increase

 

Pd. 3 Aria Choir:

·       Outfit purchased directly by students

o   Black dress ($75, includes jewelry); FYI—there will be different jewelry ($10) in the 2nd semester for Chamber Choir.  It is recommended to pay this in advance for those who will be in that class during the 2nd semester. 

o   Jewelry—consists of earrings and a matching necklace

§  Provide on own:    

·       Black closed-toe dress shoes (flats recommended)

o   Example on Amazon: Dress Flat

 Pd. 4 Beginning Treble Choir:

 

·       Partial outfit provided by Choral Boosters ($15 rental)

o   Black uniform top (sized during class)

o   Provide on own:

§  Black dress slacks (i.e. palazzo or similar) OR long black skirt (floor length)

·       Example on Amazon: Pants

·       Example on Amazon: Long Skirt

§  Black closed-toe dress shoes (flats recommended)

·       Example on Amazon: Dress Flat

 

 ****ALTERNATE OUTFITS: IF students in period 3 or 4 prefer to wear the outfit for Period 2, Bass Clef Ensemble, it is available with the same requirements/cost for that class, though due to the unique fit that some of the garments will require, it is expected that those students purchase the outfit outright.   

SEMESTER 2:

Pd. 3 Treble Voices  requires the individual purchase of a performance dress ($75 before PayPal fees).  This dress (measured/ordered by the Choral Boosters) will be used for Aria Choir, Treble Voices (2nd semester) and Chamber Choir (2nd semester).  Additionally, black closed-toe dress shoes need to be provided from home (not athletic shoes, combat boots, or sandals/flip-flops).  At the end of the usage period, it is recommended students consider selling the used dress to other students or donating to the choral program.  

Pd. 4 Chamber Choir requires the individual purchase of a performance dress or Bass Clef Ensemble-style partial tuxedo for performance.  The only change for ladies in this group is the addition of a different jewelry set (to distinguish from the 3rd period Treble Voices, as they wear the same dress).  This jewelry is $10 (prior to paypal fee).  

The following online payment option includes a required Paypal fee.  If preferred, cash or a  check made out to PCHS Choral Boosters can be remitted instead.

Concert Admission:

For cash ticket purchase for our regular concerts, a $5 fee is required at the door.  To purchase online, a $.50 fee is added to cover the Paypal charges that are added to our transactions.  The total per family is not to exceed $20 ($22 with fees).  

1) Please enter the TOTAL # OF TICKETS NEEDED, regardless of $22 maximum in the text field before completing your order.  

2) Show your purchase to the ticket sellers at the table to receive your tickets

3) Give actual tickets to the ushers at the entrance to the auditorium.
