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