District 13 Festival Assessment
Dear Parents or Guardians,
The EVHS Women’s A cappella, Men’s A cappella, and Artistic
Choir students have an amazing opportunity to perform at the All District 13
Choral Assessment on Thursday, March 21, 2013 at Orange County High School. All of the choir students have been
rehearsing for this competition during class time and at after school rehearsal. Students are expected to practice singing at
home daily. Students who do not know
their music will not be able to attend this trip.
All students will be expected to check in with first block
teachers and meet in the EVHS choir room at 8:15pm on March 21st in order to
have all outfits ready for performing.
We will leave EVHS at 8:15am and
return around 1:00pm. Students will be prompted to call their rides when we are
30 minutes outside of Culpeper. Please
be on time to pick your student up from EVHS. All students will need to turn in a permission
form and have a medical and contract form on file in order to attend this trip.
Students will need to wear the
appropriate attire as listed below for this competition. Students who do not
have the proper attire will not attend the field trip.
Women’s and Men’s A cappella - Black Dress, Nude Hose,
Colored Shoe (at least a small heel), Black Tuxes, White Shirt, Light Blue Tie,
Black Socks, Black Dress Shoes
Artistic - Blue Dress, Tights, Silver Shoes
Chaperones - I will
need at least four chaperones for this event. All chaperones must be approved by the
Culpeper School Board. If you are not on
the approved list and are interested in chaperoning, please email me for a
form. Please email me at trichtar@culpeperschools.org if
you are interested in chaperoning this event.
Students will need to
bring money with them in order to purchase a meal at a fast food restaurant. While there are no further plans to stop
on the way to or from our destination, the bus could stop if an emergency or
student need occurs.
Behavior and
Expectations - All Choir students are expected to behave in accordance
with the Culpeper County School Board Code of Conduct and the EVHS Choir Field
Trip Policy found on the EVHS Choir Blog at www.evhschoir.blogspot.org. Students are expected to be respectful and
compliant to everyone, especially chaperones and teachers attending the trip. Students who defy any of the policies
mentioned above will receive a referral and be banned from future choir field
trips.
Thank you for your attention to the above details. I am excited for this opportunity and know
that your student will have a memorable experience. Please do not hesitate to email me if you
have any questions.
