Great week and some really important stuff!

Hi everyone!


The first week of the Summers Knoll Singers has been a ball!   35 students came to choir and I expect more next week!  

The combined group will meet tomorrow as promised but there will be some IMPORTANT (but super cool) CHANGES TO THE PROGRAM:

When I decided on the division of the groups, I based it on child development experience.  I knew a shift might be needed after I got to know the students a bit.

Starting Monday:

  • 3rd graders will now be part of the Tuesday/Thursday group.  They'll be with their classmates and from what I've seen will fit in just fine.
  • Because the younger class no longer has 3rd grade and I've learned just how much the K/1/2 teachers already work together, the younger group is open to ALL Kindergarten students!
  • Enough parents have expressed an interest in a day off on Friday that it makes sense to honor the request.  SO..  there will be NO choir on Friday mornings.
To summarize.....
  • Grades K-2 meet Monday and Wednesday
  • Grades 3 - 8 meet Tuesday and Thursday
  • No class on Friday.
"OFFICIAL" ENROLLMENT INFO:
  • To make the paperwork clean for the staff, everyone will be enrolled automatically unless you instruct me otherwise.  Just email me if you've decided that choir is not a fit for your children
  • Because of the Summers Knoll Singers being such a "team sport" the commitment will be for a minimum of the semester.  
  • If you're "on the fence" or have any concerns at all please email or call this weekend.

Please email me at adamriccinto@gmail.com or call at 734-678-8215 with questions or concerns.

I'm looking forward to fun tomorrow and to starting "officially" on Monday.

P.S.  Have you checked out out class videos from this week?  :)
