Hope to see you tomorrow night for a nice evening of choral music.
PHOTOS ON MONDAY JAN 23
This coming Monday, January 23rd, is the day that a formal portrait will be taken of Chorale during 3rd block. I have received Dr. McLean’s permission to excuse the few students NOT in my 3rd hour normally to come down to my room so that this photo can take place with the full choir.
This photo is for our upcoming KMEA performance program and so it is desired that I am not missing a member of the choir on Monday morning.
Please to remind your student to set out their tux/dress/shoes (black socks for boys) on Sunday night so that they remember this for Monday morning.
I appreciate your reminders for this event and I’m so thrilled so many of you are coming to our concert on Thursday, February 23rd in Wichita.
