Our next Parent Meeting will be on
Tues., March 31 at 5:45.
Please mark your calendars!!!
Parents, remember: for safety’s sake, please walk your
child to and from the building, check in is required
for all members, remind your child to visit the
restroom before Chorus practice, and water bottles
are welcomed and encouraged at rehearsal.
 Thank You for letting us know when you must be
absent. We so appreciate your phone or email
messages when an absence is necessary! Singers are
always welcome (and encouraged) to make up an
absence by coming to an extra rehearsal. Check with
Ms. Reeves or Sharon for details!
 Please remember to pick up your name tags at the check-in
table each week. If your name tag is left on the
rack, you will be counted as absent. This is how we
take roll each week!
As always, please contact us with any questions or
comments. We are so glad you have chosen to
be a part of the GCC family!
We LOVE
our GCC
Singers!
