Chorus!!!

Banks Road Elementary Chorus,

The chorus is going so well! All of the students are working hard and singing very well. We have a lot to look forward to this year. Pieces of Gold will be in December, Barnes and Noble performance November 15, winter performance, and other performances throughout the year! With having all of these performances, we are going to be purchasing shirts for the chorus so that the students will not only perform as an ensemble but look like an ensemble. The t-shirts will be between $5 and $10.  If you would like to send in a check for $5 dollars you may make it out to Banks Road Elementary.

Just a few reminders:

You may only have ONE unexcused absence from chorus. If you have more than one you are no longer in chorus. 

Pieces of Gold is an Audition for a larger performance later this year. We will be auditioning off campus. Throughout the next couple months the students will need to work on being responsible and reliable. If we make Pieces of Gold each individual ticket will be $50 to see the performance.

November 15 – Barnes and Noble book fair will be at the Cary Crossroads Barnes and Noble. Activities start at 6. Your child is welcome to come early for the activities. I would like for all of the students to be at Barnes and Noble at 6:40 to warm up for their performance.

Thank you for all of your wonderful support!

If there are any parents that would like to volunteer please email me.

4th and 5th grade musical!

Dear parents and students,
We will be performing a winter musical this year with the 4th and 5th graders. Tracks 1 and 3 will be performing their winter musical Tuesday, November 27 at 6:30 PM. Tracks 2 and 4 will be performing their winter musical on Wednesday, December 19 at 6:30. The "The Big Chill" is about the students and teachers wanting a snow day! I have asked the students to use winter clothing that they have at home for their costumes.  Please start sending students in with hats, gloves, scarves, and any other winter apparel they may use as their costumes. Please send their costumes in a bag with their full name and teacher name. The students are doing a great job so far and very excited about the winter musical!
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
