Updates for this week
There are NO events happening this week. Some students have had a VERY busy semester so enjoy a week off!
Pre-UIL Contest and Concert
Pre-UIL Contest will take place throughout the day on March 21 and March 22. This is a required event for ALL students and will take place at Sugarland Methodist Church. Transportation is provided for the event. All students will need to bring their formal uniform (tuxedos and dresses) to school on they day they perform and will change before we leave. Because all choirs will be traveling with me each day, PARENT HELP will be needed and greatly appreciated. If you are able to help chaperone and sit with students and walk through the process with us, please reach send me an email when convenient. The schedule is posted below:
