Hello Choir Families,
Choir Party!
We had sooooo much fun today celebrating a fantastic year in choir. The kids got many awards, ate waaaayyyy too much sugar, and watched our slide show. The students were great and many of them helped clean up at the end of each class. Pictures will be posted on our Instagram page and I will put the slide show link into Google Classroom this weekend. And a big shout out to the mommies who helped set up and monitor food and for everyone who donated to the part. The kids ate all they could and took food with them.
Thank You!
As the year is wrapping up I just wanted to thank you all for everything you do to support this program. I really appreciate those of you who volunteered for events, including donating food. Thank you for spoiling me last week for teacher appreciation. I got so many nice cards and gifts and it really means a lot. I also wanted to shout out those of you who have agreed to join our booster board next year. We have a few spots still open if you are feeling a tug to join us please do! It’s a great group and when we share the load no one gets overwhelmed, including me!
Final project of the year
Students have been working this week designing show choir sets. Next week they will present them to the class for their final. I started looking through them today and I am finding A LOT of AI. Please ask them to review their sets this weekend and tweak them as needed. They can use AI to get ideas but the majority of the work needs to be their own creation.
Friends of the Library
Our last performance of the year is coming up! Sound Check will be performing at the Friends of the Library scholarship ceremony on Sunday May 31st at 2:00 the Montecito Center in Rossmoor. (12341 Montecito) Following the performance they will walk to Rossmoor In and Out for burgers and fun.
Promotion
All 8th graders in choir will be singing for promotion! We will meet at 3:30 to place everyone on the risers and do a very quick sound check. Please make it a priority to be on time so we make sure everyone is seen and heard. Don’t forget if you got a 3 year pin to wear it for promotion.
Summer Musicals
“For the first time in forever,” the Torrance Theatre Company will be presenting "Frozen the Musical” at the James R. Armstrong Theater in Torrance, CA! Our very own Ms. Kylie will be featured in the ensemble and an assistant choreographer for the production, and Kaylee Delpit from Sixth Sense will be playing one of the Young Anna’s!

Costumes Due
We are in the process of putting away costumes so I you have not yet returned yours please clean it over the long weekend and return it Tuesday.
Costume Closet Volunteers
I am excited to announce that choir was awarded a Run Seal Beach grant to purchase storage bins and rolling carts for the costume closet. Having this space organized and clean is essential to making sure our shows look amazing. I am looking for a couple of parents (ask a friend to help you) to supervise and organize the costume closet this summer. I will be on campus teaching for LAEF from 8:30-12:30 June 8-26. I am going to have students sign up for volunteer hours and need parents to supervise them while I’m teaching my classes. Let me know if you are interested and available.
Bingo! 8th Grade Parents
Don’t forget to get started on Bingo! You can earn money toward your students' choir dues all summer.
