February Update

2/8/2019

0 Comments

 
Greetings Musicians, 

I felt it necessary, due to our current weather predicaments, to write this blog post to update everyone on the upcoming trips and choir events. Please share this post with others so that everyone is caught up. Thank you.

1. Due to the crazy weather and events of the last four weeks, I have decided to cancel the scheduled Feb. 21 middle school choir concert. The music that we have ready will be re-purposed for the Spring Concert and it will allow the middle school classes to work on some much needed composition, arrangement, and creativity projects. I promise that there will be significant educational opportunities in lieu of the missed concert. The next middle school event will be the Spring Concert on May 15 (7PM). 

2. Snap - Also due to weather and unforeseen circumstances, the SNAP fundraiser was pushed back a whole month! We are scheduled to begin our SNAP RAISE fundraiser next week Wednesday. Please collect email addresses from friends and family to prepare for this fundraiser. Email addresses WILL NOT be sold or shared. Please checkout their website to learn more: https://snap-raise.zendesk.com/hc/en-us

3. Cedar Point: Everything is wrapping up nicely for the Cedar Point trip. Chaperones, it is imperative that you fill-out background checks in the HS main office ASAP. Background checks from previous school years will not be sufficient. The trip is scheduled for May 25 and I will post updates as they become available to me. 

4. The HS Spring Concert date in the syllabus and MS newsletter earlier this year was incorrect. The correct date for the HS Spring Concert is Thursday, May 16th. 

5. Disney - I would very much appreciate it if all chaperones filled out a background check ASAP as well as in the fall. That way we can make necessary adjustments sooner than later. A few people asked if they can make payments after the date and I didn't realize that there was an 8% late fee if done so. I have asked (and been granted) a waive of the Feb 1st late fee. Please make all payments BEFORE the due date to avoid any penalties. Here is a reminder of the payment schedule: Payment Schedule:
  1. Deposit $120 - Due Oct. 26
  2. 2nd $333 - Due Feb. 1
  3. 3rd $333 - Due May. 17
  4. 4th $333 - Due Sept. 13

Fundraiser
  • If you forgot to turn in your fundraiser, please do so tomorrow. It must be turned in by tomorrow. Please don't forget to add up your total items and money at the bottom. 
High School National Anthem
  • Both high school choirs will be singing the National Anthem at Friday's (final) home game. Call-time is 6:30pm. We will meet at the east gate on the middle school side. We will enter the stadium at 6:35pm, if you are late you will not be admitted. This is a graded performance (see syllabus). 
New York Trip
  • The waiting list is growing! If you want to be put on the waiting list, please email me your name (and that you want to be put on the list). If you decide you no longer want to go on the trip, let me know so I can add someone else. 
Choir Shirts
  • OV Choir shirts will be passed out this week (to be worn at concerts). Please make sure this is placed in a safe place and remember to bring it to each concert​ (starting with the Holiday Concert).
Parent Teacher Conferences
  • Since I am split between two buildings and need to juggle parent teacher conference schedules I will only be available for the MIDDLE SCHOOL PT conferences. High school parents are welcome to visit me at the middle school conferences on:
    • Wednesday, November 1
      4:00-6:30pm (or)
    • Thursday, November 2
      After School-4:00
If there are any immediate questions, please email me at bradley.saniga@orchardview.org and I will get back to you ASAP

Popcorn and Cookie Dough Fundraiser

Happy Friday!

On Monday (Oct. 2) the choir will start their fall cookie dough and popcorn fundraiser with The Goodies Factory! Money raised goes toward the choir's general fund and helps support and maintain the reputation of excellence enjoyed by Orchard View Choir.

If a HS student is planning on attending the NYC trip in April, $5 per item sold will be credited toward their trip payment.

On Monday, the students will receive two brochures, an item order sheet, and this cover letter.

This fundraiser is a fantastic way to support the Orchard View choir program and enjoy some delicious treats!
