Wrapping it Up

Our first year at Harrison Voices is coming to a close.  If you haven't had a chance yet to check progress book, please look before next week.  If your grade is not what you expect, you may have a missing assignment (the Showcase make-up, floating assignment and IWAA points seem to be the big culprits).  I will accept work all the way through Thursday of next week- but the high school and junior school are on special schedules, so finding me ay be a challenge.  On Tuesday I will make a round of all of the elementary schools at lunchtime to check my mailbox for late or make-up work.  Then I will be at the high school all afternoon for exam review.

Showcase Southwest

Our final group performance is Saturday, May 19th at Showcase Southwest.  The 6th grade will sign-in at 11:15 and perform from 11:30- noon.  The JS Singers will sign-in at noon for a 12:15 performance.  All High School Choirs (show choir and concert choir) will meet at 12:45 for a 1 pm performance on the stage.

Enjoy Spring Break/ Nashville was Great!!

We hope that everyone enjoys their Spring Break this week and comes back fresh and ready to sing.  Here are some pictures from our Nashville trip.  A few pictures are outside RCA Studio B where we recorded a demo, inside the studio before we recorded our demo, Alex playing the same piano that Elvis played in Studio B.  We also have some pictures of our students gathering on the dance floor at the Wild Horse Saloon to line dance and inside the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Nashville Bound

Several members of the high school choir will be heading to Nashville, TN at the beginning of spring break.  We will head to the music city early Friday morning.  Our next concerts for all choirs are in May. We are all beginning to dive into music for those concerts.  We hope that everyone enjoys their spring break and comes back on April 9th ready to work.

End of the 3rd Quarter

This is the last week of the 3rd quarter.  If you have make-up work due, it needs to be turned in.  If you are a secondary student, don't forget your Floating Assignment.

South Dearborn Comp

The Harrison HS Show Choir “Harrison Harmonics” performed in exhibition at the South Dearborn Opening Knight Showcase on Saturday.  Andrew Farringer was named “Outstanding Performer” for our group and Alex Mains was awarded the “Outstanding Soloists During a Show” for our entire high school division.  For those of you who are not familiar with the show choir competition circuit, for Alex to earn this honor during our inaugural competition performance surrounded so many seasoned competitors is quite a coup.  It was a thrilling night for Harrison.  

Concert on the 5th

All of our JS Singers, JS Lunch Bunch Choir, Harrison Show Cats and Wildcat Concert Choir will be performing for friends and family on Monday, March 5th at 7 pm in the Activity Center Theater.  Show Cats also will be performing on Saturday, March 10th at the South Dearborn Opening Knight Showcase.
