While School Is Closed...
Dear choir family,
It is during these times that we as directors and teachers realize how fortunate we are to have students like you in our class. You are missed by us and your classmates, but we will pull through this. We look forward to the time that we can once again make music together, face to face, in the same room.
In the meantime, please keep the following in mind:

In the meantime, please keep the following in mind:
- Weekly assignments will be posted on Its Learning. Most will require some form or response from you for a grade.
- We hope to give you some creative ways to explore music in other ways that are relevant and curricular in nature. The assignments are built to take about one hour of work per week. Our goal is to allow you to continue to enjoy music and learn something new about your relationship with music and the role of music in your relationship to the world around you. We know your other classes will probably be overwhelming; we want to be your sanctuary from that, while still learning!
- As required by CCISD, there will also be an assessment of some sort (probably sight reading factory or something similar) every other week.
- Although not official, we anticipate that UIL will be canceled. At this time we have no plans to rehearse our UIL music.
- We will be checking our emails regularly; expect responses to your questions pretty quickly. If you need to discuss issues, we will be "in the office" from 10-11 AM daily to give immediate answers. Right now the only way to reach us by email; we'll let you know if that changes.
