Rockin’ Rattlers
Calling all 3rd and 4th graders:
If you love to sing and perform, you will love Rockin’ Rattlers! Rockin’ Rattlers is a music performance group that sings, plays instruments, and performs several times throughout the school year. We meet from 3:00-4:00 after school on Tuesdays beginning October 7th.
Please understand that joining this group is a commitment. Attendance is taken at every rehearsal. Students that miss twice for unexcused reasons will be dismissed from the group. Absences must be communicated to Mrs. Surface beforehand in the form of e-mail, written note or phone call from parents. Absence from a performance will also result in dismissal.
Students wishing to be a member of Rockin’ Rattlers must pass all classes, per UIL rules, and have good conduct in all classes to be eligible. Good behavior is a requirement for choir members during rehearsals and performances.
Every Tuesday, Rockin’ Rattlers will be released from their classroom at 3:00 and will go to the music room. At 4:00, students will be dismissed from the music room in the front (upper driveway) of the school. Please pick up your child promptly at 4:00p.m. each week. Students not picked up in a timely manner will be subject to dismissal as well.
All Rockin’ Rattlers will need a performance shirt, design above. We will wear these for performances to look uniformed. If your child already has this shirt from a previous year, no need to purchase a new one. I will send out a separate order form with pricing for the shirt in October. Also, this year we will compete at a contest (at a super-fun venue). The price of the contest will be about $21 per child. I will send more information home about that once the dates and plans have been finalized. Donations for the contest and shirt will be taken at a later date.
Please fill out the bottom portion or ask your teacher for a copy of the form. Return to Mrs. Surface by Sept 30th to reserve your spot in Rockin’ Rattlers. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at Courtney.Surface@kellerisd.net
Thank you,
Mrs. Surface, music teacher

I, ______________________________, want to be in Rockin’ Rattlers! I understand that I must attend rehearsals and performances, and be on my best behavior when we are meeting as a group. I have also read the eligibility requirements and can abide by those as well.
