Have a great spring break!
Information
Vocal Dimensions: Do you love to sing or sing and dance? Are you a committed team player and a hard-working individual? If so, the HHS Choir Program is the place for you! Singing auditions for Vocal Dimensions, Concert Choir, and Chorus will take place THIS AND THE WEEK AFTER SPRING BREAK! Plan to demonstrate your vocal range and do some general singing exercises, including a couple of musical memory games, and sing 30 seconds of an appropriate song of your choosing that showcases your vocal range and skills. Please sign up for a singing audition time slot on the Google Form below. All singing auditions will take place in the choir room. If none of the times on the Google form work for you, I can also make Advisory times work as well as during the 3rd period class time. Each audition will hold a 10-minute time slot. Please email me and let me know if you need a different time. Here is the Google Form to sign up for a singing audition time slot: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XbgPNCxrwaziot_ejtO6t-0wh1fYBR3Htfg8pVr5OQ4/edit?usp=sharing Dance auditions (for consideration for Vocal Dimensions only) will take place on Wednesday, April 15 from 12:30-1:30pm (learn the dance audition choreography) and Thursday, April 16 (perform the dance audition) from 12:30-1:30pm in the HHS Choir Room. You MUST be at BOTH days of dance auditions to be considered for Vocals! Singing callbacks will take place on Tues, April 21, during BOTH A and B lunch in the HHS Choir room. Please come straight to the choir room during your lunch hour.

In addition, you will need 3 emails of recommendation sent directly to me by your teacher/coach, NO LATER THAN Thurs., April 16 if you wish to be considered for Vocals. One must be from an HHS teacher, and the other can be from a community member/coach/employer. Current HHS Choir students only need two emails of recommendation.

Word of the Day
To fawn over or on someone (usually someone important or powerful) is to try to get their approval through praise, special attention, or flattery. Fawn is also sometimes used—especially but not exclusively of dogs—to mean “to show affection.”
