Upcoming Concerts

APRIL 7th, MONDAY  6th Grade Festival at Ellison HS - 6:00 PM

Please wear your choir t-shirt and jeans and be in your seat by 5:45 pm.  We will be performing first!  This is a short and sweet concert, but one that will help the kids get ready for UIL competition next year.  We will be doing some very nice foreign language songs.  Patterson MS and Manor MS will also perform.


APRIL 8th, TUESDAY 7th/8th Grade Pre-UIL Concert - Ellison High School - 6:15 PM

Please wear your black formal clothing for this event.  Boys-tux shirt/cumerbund/tie/black shoes/socks/belt and GIrls-Black dress and flat black shoes.  Please be in your seat by 6:15PM.

This concert will help us in our preparation for our UIL Competition for Region 8 and give parents opportunity to see what we will be performing on April 29th at Shoemaker during the day.  We hope to have our songs learned and mostly polished.  Each choir is required to memorize and perform perfectly three songs.  As you are imagining we will be working very hard to accomplish our goal of getting a SUPERIOR rating (I) from the three judges.

APRIL 12th, SATURDAY, 11-3 PM - First Annual Choir UIL Clinic & Pizza Lunch  - Liberty Hill MS

We are delighted to have Professor Shelley Dennis from Temple College and Dr. Jennifer Tucker as clinicians for our 7th/8th grade choirs.  Ms. Vicky Morris will be accompanying the clinicians. The students will put the final polish on the musical selections and get some great FREE vocal lessons from two incredible singers.  Lunch will be served after the event in the cafeteria.  

PLEASE call me or email if you would like to help us set up lunch or to generally help with the chaperoning of the children that morning.

APRIL 29th, TUESDAY, UIL Competition - Shoemaker HS - during the school day

The students will bring their formal clothes to school and we will take all three choirs over to Shoemaker via school bus.  More information to come on our order and meals.

Boys 7/8: We have decided to wear any combo of black/grey/white If your child wants to wear a hoodie or shorts it is ok. No t-shirts with inappropriate words. Stay within dress code.

Girls 7/8 Varsity:  Please ask your student what their assigned color is.  IF they can’t remember just wear black/red/purple/white/ or Royal Blue.  Stay within dress code.

Girls 7/8 Non-Varsity: The kids have decided to dress “ratchet”.  This does not mean inappropriate.  IT means they can wear mismatched clothes or clothes of their choice. It just has to be in dress code.  We are trying to send the message that clothes don’t determine your worth.

If your kid is picked to usher please show up by 7:00pm. Thanks!

This concert will be short and sweet this year.  We will be singing 7 songs total.  So your kid should be done by 8:15 at latest.

Dr. Tucker and I appreciate your support!  Please email or call with any questions.
