EVHS Choir: Field Trip Letter that was sent home last Friday 12-6

Eastern View High School

Creating Opportunities - Building Communities

Holiday Concert Season Field Trips

Dear Parents or Guardians,

All EVHS Choir students have an amazing opportunity to perform for many schools and community organizations this December. All of the choir students have been rehearsing for these concerts during class time and at after school rehearsals. Students are expected to practice singing and dances (Show Choirs) at home daily. Students who do not know their music and dances will not be able to attend the following trips.

Please note that each trip is different and may not include every group of choral students. Please only fill out the forms for the trips that apply to your student on the permission slip. Some students may need to stay back at school due to upcoming SOLs in mathematics. Thank you ahead of time for your understanding. All students will need to turn in a permission form and have a medical and contract form on file in order to attend these field trips. Students will need to wear the appropriate attire as listed below for all the following field trips.
