Weekly Rehearsal Assessments




Fall Concert
Our concert is this Thursday! For those students that have elected to participate, your call time is 5:30 in front of the school in Sunday best attire.  Our final rehearsal is this Tuesday.


A Message from our Treasurer
For anyone who made a payment contract for the Basic Support Fee, your September payments are due now. Our Treasurer Karen Heller will be at the concert this Thursday if anyone wants to pay cash, check or by credit card. Students, please know that the black payment box in the choir room is up and running for you to drop off payments.  Money deposited will be picked up weekly.


Sheet Sale Fundraiser
Our annual Sheet Sale fundraiser ends this week! All information concerning the sale can be found at www.grissomchoir.com/fundraising.  For those that have sold sheets, your orders are due no later than this Friday.  Late orders will NOT be accepted.


HVA Involvement
Because choir is an extra-curricular activity, we have been given the opportunity to allow Huntsville Virtual Academy (HVA) students to come to campus and participate in their choir class with the traditional students AFTER FALL BREAK.  I have outlined the guidelines for each class concerning HVA involvement below.  HVA students and parents, do note that if you wish to continue to learn music virtually, it is still a requirement for you to participate in our concerts, whether they be in-person or pre-recorded.


Chamber Choir - HVA students will come to campus alongside traditional students for class rehearsals.
Concert Choir - HVA students are advised to come to campus alongside traditional students for class rehearsals.
Men’s Choir - HVA students are encouraged to come to campus alongside traditional students for class rehearsals.
Women’s Choir - HVA students are encouraged to come to campus alongside traditional students for class rehearsals.
Vocal Lab - HVA students are encouraged to come to campus alongside traditional students for class practice.


For those that will be at home tuning in LIVE (Cohort 1 vs 2, and/or HVA), please keep up with attending rehearsals virtually during our assigned class blocks, watching the Zoom recordings, and filling out the Daily Rehearsal Assessments for each class in order to receive credit, all of which can be found at www.grissomchoir.com/elearning.
