Hello Choir Families,
This is the week of sickness! Myself included. I’m hoping we can all get some rest this weekend and be ready to go next week. We have a crazy schedule with testing and conferences. Studio Singers and Sound Waves has one more competition so they will be rehearsing as much as we can. Sixth Sense, Soul Men, and Sound Check have all started working on their music video projects and are doing very well.
Cypress Competition Saturday March 28th-Sound Waves and Studio Singers
It’s time for our final competition of the year at Cypress Star Reflections, so here is information on purchasing tickets to watch the competition, how to purchase food at the venue, and the prospective timeline for the day. This year, the competition is being held at Anaheim High School (811 W Lincoln Ave, Anaheim, CA 92805) and NOT at Cypress or Kennedy High School.
Tickets can be prepurchased at https://cypressshowchoir.
We will start loading the bus at 6:45am and leave for Anaheim High School at 7:00am. After the competition, we will have a group lunch at the Anaheim Packing District. Students will need to change out of their costumes and into their grey McAuliffe choir t-shirt. Students will need money for lunch. We’ll leave the competition at around 12:45 to head to lunch and are expected to return back to McAuliffe campus at around 3:00pm (subject to change).
Music Video Projects-All Choirs
These videos will be viewed at our Concert on the Green in May. Students will be working in class over the next couple of months to create, record, and film music videos. We will be using the recording studio in the choir room to record vocals and students will be filming on and off campus.
Audition Information
All students will turn in an audition either to me or to the high school regardless of their elective choir for next year. This is an assignment for choir and teaches them how to follow instructions, upload a resume, record their audition, and prepare for an audition. The audition assignment is already on Classroom for 6th and 7th graders and the 8th grade information will be coming soon. We are working in class on all aspects of the audition.
Bingo! 8th grade parents
I know it sounds crazy but it’s time to start working bingo to earn money for your future high school choir student. It happens every Tuesday and no special skills are required. Sign up on the link below.
