Here is some information and FAQ's for you:
Do I have to know how to sing to join the group?
Nope! Miss Loeffler will teach you how to sing better and sound better! Come give us a try! There is no audition to join the group--everyone in 7th & 8th Grade can be a part of the Choir!
When & where does the choir meet?
Tuesday and Wednesday mornings from 7:30-8:00 a.m. in Room 002 by the South Gym. Once the bus schedule is set, we will start rehearsals in mid-September!
I'm in Band/Orchestra, and I want to join. How can I do both?
You would go to your normal rehearsals for band or orchestra, and come to Choir on the day you are not in your ensemble rehearsal. For example, if you have Orchestra on Tuesdays (Thursdays and Fridays, too), you would come to Choir on Wednesdays. If you're in Band, you would come to Choir on Tuesdays. You might have to do a little catching up on the music, but you would be most welcome in choir!
Does it cost money to join the Choir?
It is free to join the group! We will order t-shirts (optional) later in the year, and those cost around $10. Financial assistance is available. Other than that, there is no fee to be involved.
How do I get to rehearsal?
We have busses for those that need a ride. You can also get a ride from a parent/guardian or walk to school. You should be dropped off at Door 29 (along the bus drop-off side, by the South Gym). All of that will be explained to you once you sign up!
How do I sign up?
