Updated 8th Grade Announcement

Dear 8th Grade Parents,

Our rehearsal Wednesday morning is cancelled due to a meeting that I am now required to attend. I am so sorry for any inconvenience. 

This is also a reminder that our required parent meeting for Universal is Tuesday night at 7pm in the theater (6pm in the chorus room for chaperones). Please make arrangements to be there. If you cannot be there, please let me know right away. Thank you,

Jennifer Aikey

8th Grade announcements

Dear 8th Grade Parents,

Universal: We have a VERY important parent meeting for the Universal trip on Tuesday, April 23rd. Please come to the Durham theater at 7pm for this meeting. Chaperones, please meet with us in the Chorus room at 6pm. If you cannot make this meeting, please let me know so I can set up an alternate time for you. This meeting goes over the itinerary, packing list, and will allow you to meet the chaperones. Your child is not required to attend, but they are encouraged to come if they can. 
Also, next Wednesday (the 24th), it would be great if we have as many students who are doing the Orchestra workshop at Universal (which is everyone going on the trip in this email group unless they are a doubler and chose their other program) to meet at 8:15am on the 24th in the Orchestra for a rehearsal. We are recording the Despicable Me music in a recording studio and must adhere to their tempo (speed) and music, so having an extra rehearsal with just the students who are playing in the workshop would be very helpful. Please also make sure your child is practicing at home if possible to help us have the best recording we can have. 

Final Concert: It's hard to believe, but these awesome students will have their final concert on Thursday, May 2 at 7pm at Durham. Please have your child arrive at Durham at 6:30 in their uniform.

Please let me know if you have any questions,



Jennifer Aikey
