County Chorus Auditions
Attention all high school chorus directors: Auditions for this year's county chorus festival will take place on Saturday, September 24th, at ELCO High School. We will start with a director's meeting at 7:30am in the chorus room with auditions starting as close to 8am as possible. Depending on how many students audition, we should be able to wrap things up around 1-2pm or earlier. Students may request an early audition for SCHOOL RELATED events only (i.e. marching band competition, school sports, etc.), however, this will not guarantee they will be done by a certain time. Students leaving early will need to fill out an early dismissal form (attached) signed by their parents and be check out before they leave. Students may NOT return to the building. Students MUST be present at the beginning of auditions, they may not come late. The registration window for auditions will be open from now until Sept. 21 at 11:59pm.
If you have any other questions about county chorus auditions, please email Melodie Fair, County Chorus Chair at mfair@elcosd.org.
