Talent Show Audtions
It’s that time of year again!!!! On the day we return, MONDAY, DEC. 2, there will be a meeting for all students who are trying out for the talent show as well as the talent show committee in ROOM 332, 10:25-10:45 (last 20 minutes of 2nd period and immediately following A lunch.
The students received confirmation letters today, but in that letter, it said room 538 was the location. We have since had to change that to room 332, so please tell the students. There will be an all-call as well.
I’m attaching the list of those who’ve signed up to audition and their audition time. Usually at the meeting prior to audition day, we have several acts drop out or change members. I will send an updated list on Tuesday with instructions for how to handle the auditions in terms of how/when to dismiss them, etc. If you’re having a sub that day, please print out my email and leave it with your plans.
The list is attached (students listed twice are trying out more than once) and below are the committee members who need to attend the meeting and will be out of class all day Wednesday. Thank you for your support as we provide this opportunity for our students. Ask if you have any questions at all. Freda Abercrombie-Rouse, NBCT; fabercro@pasco.k12.fl.us
