The 5th and 6th Grade Chorus students have the opportunity to participate in the first annual 5th and 6th Grade Chorus Gala. This event will take place after school in the Miscoe Auditorium on Thursday, March 30th. This event aims to encourage collaboration between the 5th and 6th grade chorus singers and give the singers an informal environment to perform and workshop the songs that they are working on in class. Additionally, they will get to mingle with their classmates, participate in some fun ensemble building activities, and get to teach each other skills they have learned in their repertoire.
Snacks will be provided by the music boosters.
This event is not mandatory, but it is highly encouraged.
Additionally, there are no dress requirements.
