Welcome to 2024! There are a few items for me to share as we begin this second semester: Registration It’s almost time to register for the 2024-2025 school year! Current 9th-11th grade students will register for classes at the end of this month/beginning of February. I look forward to seeing our chorus students return next year as we build upon the music and skills we are working on during our current school year! Treble voices (Soprano/Alto) who are interested in auditioning for our advanced class (Cantabile) should sign up for an audition. Audition times will be posted in the chorus room next week. Auditions start January 29. In the meantime, make sure to register for chorus so that you’re eligible to audition. Treble Chorus students who are currently in 4th period/Cantabile remain. Treble Chorus students who do not audition will be placed into 3rd period/Rhapsody chorus. Tenors & Basses remain in 5th period chorus. Do you know someone who loves to sing, but isn’t in chorus? Please make sure to send them to me! Do you know an 8th grade student from Five Forks or Crews Middle who likes to sing? Make sure they register for Brookwood Chorus as well! Chorus Dues If your student paid their chorus dues, they will receive the spring show chorus shirt later this semester. If they still need to pay, please click here for instructions. Need a Uniform? If you need a uniform or single component, (required for formal concerts like LGPE), please click here. Order several weeks before you need something.
