Choir Announcements

Please make sure that your son/daughter has his/her music ready for every practice. Please consider buying some small post-it flags in order to easily mark all songs.

Cantors are to meet with Mrs. Somavia on the Tuesday before they are to sing. All cantors should have taken some time to look over the music before meeting with Mrs. Somavia in order to be familiar with the lyrics. Please go to room 104 immediately after school.
