Kindness Chain Update
Our 4th quarter goal is to get the chain down the stairs, around the front entrance, and back to where it started. While we have quite a distance to go in order to reach our goal, we still have a couple of weeks left. You can help us by encouraging your children to look for opportunities to be kind. Thank you for supporting us in this initiative this year.

Library News
Parents:
I had planned to run my report on over-due books this past week, and hand out late slips. However, since there are still over 132 late slips to print out, I thought I would wait until next week to run the report. I'm hoping since they can no longer check out books for this year, students will return the outstanding books they still have.Please remind your student to return all books by THIS FRIDAY, MAY 11th.
Thanks for your help!

Vocal Camp Opportunity
My name is Shannon Kramer Mullins, owner ofMiss Shannon’s Music Studio in Batesville, Indiana. Miss Shannon’s Music Studio is partnering with Batesville’s Rural Alliance for the Arts to bring a Summer Vocal Camp to the area. This camp is a unique opportunity that you won’t find anywhere else in Southeastern Indiana. I hope you will take time to read the information and offer it to your students. I am very excited to offer this to the local communities and hope that you will have your students take advantage of this wonderful Summer Vocal Camp!
The camp is June 18-22. Each day the students will participate in workshops and master classes starting at 10:00 am until 12:30 pm. There will be an emphasis on Musical Theater this year. The camp will be split into two groups, 8-13 working on musical theater technique, staging, auditions, breathing, diction and more! The second group, 14-24, will work on many of the same things while getting deeper into vocal pedagogy. Each student will also receive two private lessons with Jonathan and Samantha during the week. There is a performance by the couple at Batesville Music and Arts Festival on Thursday June 21. There is a student recital on Friday June 22. This recital is optional but recommended. It will be informal in the afternoon.
To sign up, have your students go to www.missshannonstudio.com and click on summer vocal camp to register or email missshannonstudio@gmail.com, call 812-212-6498. All prospective students will need a song prepared for the camp. The camp tuition is $100 for RAA members and $125 for non-members. The camp is offered for ages 8-13 and 14-24 in two separate groups, this years focus will be Musical Theater.
