KIN
Mrs. Moore and myself are so EXCITED about our new chorus this year. There are 120 students in chorus and they are all talented, hardworking and ready to sing.
This year we are taking chorus to a higher level with new performance opportunities and a Spring Musical. Our efforts are under way for a successful fundriaser with Heritage Candles as well.
Please encourage your child to do their very best not only in chorus but in their academics. For Mrs. Moore and myself academics is top priority. Singers were given expectations for both behavior and grades and if these expectations aren't met they will know they will be placed on probation. I know that all will go well with these expectations and students will do everything they are suppose to do in being a great member of the Treble Tones Chorus.
Lastly, as a parent, you also have responsibilites. Please make sure your child attends chorus, is picked up on time, you volunteer your time if possible and that your child comes to all performances. We enjoy teaching your child how to sing and we hope that you will do everything to make sure your child has a wonderful singng year.
If you have any questions or concerns please email us at teasleysmusicteacher_gmail.com.

Roxanne Mungin, Director and Marcia Moore, Assistant Director
