Weekly update for the Chorus at Austin Middle School
Christmas Break Edition
We had a great concert this week and a very successful field trip for our 7th and 8th grade chorus. Thank you to everyone who had a hand in making it so successful! I see them and listen to them every day, but I am always amazed at what they do when they stand on stage and perform. I am so very proud of them!
There are just a few things to note below along with some updates for our two honor chorus groups. If your child is participating in one of these, please be sure to check the updates! Thank you!
Enjoy your break and see you back in class on Friday, January 3rd!
