OUTFITS/Music Rental

In order to give a more uniform and polished appearance for our performers, each student will be required to wear a designated outfit purchased or rented through the CHORAL BOOSTERS. The choir fee for Artistic, Advances, Women’s A cappella, Men’s A cappella this year is $, which includes outfit rental, dress bag rental, shoe rental, and CD fees. Every student who pays their choir fee will receive a choir t-shirt.  See below for Show Choir details. Students are also responsible for the cleaning and care of their outfits through the entire year. All outfits can be washed on gentle cycle. All outfits rented through the boosters are to be returned to the choral room by Monday June 2nd, 2013, 1st semester outfits are due by January 6th.  If a student is unable to provide the resources for an outfit his or her guardian may discuss this in confidence with the choral director.  All STUDENTS WILL HAVE AN OUTFIT FOR PERFORMANCES. Please fill out the attached form and turn it into the choral director with outfit fee by Friday, Feb. 1st. 

Outfit Contract: Students will sign a contract for every choir item that is assigned to them.

Uniform and Shoe Closet

The Uniform Closet is organized and clean.  Only the Choir director, Uniform Manager, and the Uniform parent are allowed in the closet.  If a student needs to borrow an item from the uniform closet, he or she will need to find one of the above named persons to sign out an item for them.  That student will be responsible for that item until it is returned to the closet.   The shoe boxes need to stay where they are placed in the closet (in order).  All shoes must be signed out by the above persons before they are taken or borrowed.  Only the Choir Director, Uniform Manager, and Uniform Parent are allowed to take shoes out of the Uniform Closet.

UNIFORM MANAGER

One student will be the uniform manager for Intro to Choir, Artistic, Men’s and Women’s A cappella choirs and one for Show Choir.  They are responsible for the organization of outfits.  They are the only students allowed in the uniform closet.  Uniforms that belong to the choir may be stored in the locked uniform closet (Practice Room #1 or #2) but must be brought home prior to concert day in order to be pressed and washed for performance.  (Students need to avoid dirty or wrinkled costumes.)  Students will sign a contract for all rented outfits and are responsible for replacing all lost items. THE CHOIR DIRECTOR IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST OR STOLEN UNIFORM.
