Spring Lake Music

Thank you, families, for sending in the money and order forms by our deadline. The shirts have been ordered and will be in before the December 11 caroling date. Dynamite Advertising, a company out of Spring Lake, designed a great shirt for us this year. We will look so sharp!

The Holmes Honors choir will be working this winter with a group of 4th grade singers from Oakridge Upper Elementary in Muskegon, Michigan. This group is under the direction of Mrs. Michelle Prince. We will be singing songs about peace, harmony, and tolerance in January and February. It will be exciting to make some new friends!

The green sign up forms and notes were sent home last week. Please have the bottom portion returned to school by this Friday – September 25. If your child is interested but not sure, send in the form. I will be meeting with the Honors Choir students at school to answer questions, give more details, and show a short video about being in the choir.

Honors Choir is a select group of 3rd and 4th graders who meet before school to learn special music that is different from what is being taught in general music class during the school day. Any 3rd or 4th grader who loves to sing, wants to participate in a positive team activity that is non-competitive, and wants to share the gift of music with others, is welcome in Honors Choir. We will begin in mid-October. More information will be posted soon!
