HPMS Choir News

Hello HPMS Music Ideals Families,
Less than a month until CPA, and we're working hard!
These are the remaining performance dates for the semester:
4/11 - Choral Performance Assessment
4/22 - Spring Concert
Good Things:
1) We are finishing up the details on our CPA music and getting more into our Spring Concert music. We will continue working on these side-by-side.
2) We are greatly improving at our sight singing. We are focusing more on our 8th-note rhythms right now and making great progress.
3) I am chaperoning the 8th-grade trip next week and will not be here, but Mrs. Henderson and her student teacher, Mr. Carlisle will be teaching class on Wednesday and Thursday to make sure we are CPA ready before Spring Break!
After-School Rehearsal Schedule
This week (March 18) we have rehearsal for ALTOS.
These rehearsals will be graded. Only excused absences will not impact a student's grade. We will be sure to remind the section (or full choir) that will be rehearsing ahead of time. Please be sure your ASD2 app notifications are on to receive reminders through Rooms.
Rehearsals take place from 3:30-5pm. Please let me know of any sports conflicts ahead of time, so we can communicate with coaches. Please remember that, per the handbook, I need advance notice of a conflict in order for the absence to count as excused; telling me the day of or after the fact will result in an unexcused absence.
Here is the schedule for rehearsals for the rest of the semester:
March 18 - Alto
(no rehearsal because of 8th grade trip 3/25)
(Spring Break week of 4/1)
April 8 - FULL REHEARSAL (this is the day after break; it is VERY important everyone is present)
April 15 - FULL REHEARSAL
