Teachers

The practice tracks are finished! Some of the music I ordered was on back order for 6 week (I ordered it in November) and it finally came in yesterday! We have been working hard since then to finish the practice tracks to send out to you all.  If you click the link below it will direct you to the google drive folder that has all of the practice tracks for the 5/6 honor choir.

Directors

Yesterday was the deadline to register your choirs for the SCMMEA Elementary Honor Choir (Feb 23rd).  Below you will find the link to the shirt/name/lunch form. The Elementary/Jr High will have different forms this year. This makes compiling the program much simpler. It is due Feb 1st.

Payment

• This year you will be able to pay by school credit card!  You can do that online or when you arrive at the event.  In around a week we will be launching a way to pay online. Once I have the link I will send it your way!
• If you need an invoice, one is attached to this email if you need it. 
• Everyone needs to be paid in full by the day of the event. You must pay for the amount of students you initially registered for, even if some don't attend. 
• Checks can be made out to SCMMEA and mailed to SCMMEA PO BOx 7053, Springfield MO 65801 or you can bring the check the day of the event.

Students need to have music memorized by the day of the event. 

Attire
Students will wear their choir t-shirt and black from the waist down (black pants, black shoes, black socks). Shirts will be tucked in for the performance. 

Jobs
In February I will be assigning some small jobs to help with crowd control, handing out programs, etc. They will be as minimal as possible. 

Schedule:
The schedule for the event is attached to the email as well as a map of SBU. 

If you have any questions feel free to email me!
