News for Everyone
UIL Contest Results
CONGRATULATIONS to all 5 of our choirs who participated in UIL Concert & Sight Reading last week. I am SO proud of all the students and what they achieved this past week. 4 of our 5 choirs earned a "Sweepstakes" which is the top prize at this event. A "Sweepstakes" means that students received a top rating of "1" from at least two of the 3 judges in BOTH the concert and sight-reading portions. Our Treble Choir is the FIRST Sub Non-Varsity Choir from Travis to receive this award. Our Non-Varsity Tenor-Bass Choir received a "Superior" rating on stage (they received top marks from all three judges) and they are ALSO the first Non-Varsity Tenor-Bass Choir from Travis to receive this award.
If you have not done so, please congratulate your child on these awesome achievements as they are difficult to earn and require A LOT of hard work and preparation.
Uniform Turn-In
After UIL, there will no longer be performances for our formal uniforms. All uniforms will need to be dry-cleaned and then returned to campus IN THE DRY CLEANING BAG WITH RECEIPT attached. ALL tuxedo pieces must be dry cleaned including pants, vest, tie, and jacket. Uniforms turned in without showing proof of being dry-cleaned will be assessed a dry cleaning fee.
Please have uniforms CLEANED and RETURNED by Friday, April 12.
Auditions for Next Year
This week I will be hearing student auditions for next year's choir placements. All audition materials were uploaded to Schoology on Friday of last week as well as the scoring guide. Please ask your child if you are interested in viewing the scoring and criteria.
