| The 2007-2008 Arnold Choir is forming now! | |
|
Attention 3rd, 4th and 5th graders!!!!
It's time for the Arnold Choir to begin practicing for the 2007-2008 school year. The purpose of the Arnold Choir is to work together to make good music, learn good social skills and the value of teamwork, develop proper singing techniques and have fun working together. The Arnold Choir practices on Mondays starting September 10th through May 19th from 3:40 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. We will perform at all of the quarterly recognition assemblies (October 18, January 11, March 20 and May 23) and at the winter and spring concerts (January 17 and April 24). There may be additional performances added during the year and notification will be given far enough in advance to make arrangements for your child to participate. If your child is in 3rd, 4th or 5th grade and is interested in being a member of the Arnold Choir, please have him/her get a choir contract form Mr. Schmit, fill it out and return it to Mr. Schmit by Friday, August 31st. If you have concerns or questions, you may contact Mr. Schmit at nschmit@lps.org or 436-1120. I hope to see you all in choir this year! Posted by Nolan Schmit on 8/20/07; 4:53:49 PM from the dept.

| Spring Concert a BIG SUCCESS | |

The 2nd and 3rd graders AND the 4th and 5th graders performed their concerts on May 3rd.
