Welcome to choir at Faircrest Middle School! I am so glad to have your child involved in Vocal Music as well as band at our school. It is going to be Welcome to choir at Faircrest Middle School! I am so glad to have your child involved in Vocal Music. It is going to be great year filled with tons of singing and preparing for our concerts. Choir is a performance oriented class and grades will be based accordingly. Please make sure that your child is interested in singing and will be attending each performance before signing below. There are two REQUIRED performances per year and attendance is mandatory. I look forward to the upcoming year and am excited to work with each group. A very special welcome to new choir students and the 6th grade choir.
Due to our time being cut short, we will need to work as a team more than ever before. Being part of a team means that everyone, including myself, participates to the best of their ability. Appropriate behavior is expected. I enjoy each and every one of you, but we have to stay on top of our music this year. As long as students work with me and other choir students, we should be fine in learning in our music. The school discipline plan must be enforced this year by all teachers. In cases of behavior that continue to interfere with learning, a parent conference may be needed and/or student may be removed from choir.
