Week 3

Good Evening Grissom Choir,

Thank you to all that came to our Parent Meeting this past Thursday night! We had a great turn-out for new members, and all those that were there were able to get fitted for their uniform.  For those that were not at our meeting, please go to www.grissomchoir.com/parents to view the Parent Night Keynote and see everything that we discussed. New members that were not at the meeting will be fitted for uniforms in the coming weeks.

Parent Meeting Behavior

At our Parent Meeting, we had students displaying behaviors that are uncharacteristic of Grissom Choir members.  Students, please be aware that rude and inappropriate comments will not be tolerated at any function that Grissom Choir hosts.  Failure to act appropriately will result in consequences as outlined in the Behavior Learning Guide and the Grissom Choir Handbook
