5th Grade Choir Parade and Caroling Information

Sparta Area School District

Phone 269-2187, Paul Fischer, Principal

Dear Choir Parents and Students,

‘Tis the season’ for singing! The choir will go caroling at the Morrow Home Friday, December 11th from 4:30-5:00 p.m.. Parents are responsible for getting sons and daughters there and back home again. Please drop students off at 4:20 at the north side entrance (not Water Street front entrance) facing the parking lot so we can get organized in the large lobby area. We will sing in the dining area and anyone is welcome to come and watch and/or help chaperone.
I have signed the choir up to walk in the Children’s Holiday Parade, Friday December 4th at 6:00 p.m. See the other note for more directions. I realize some students may already be expected to walk for other organizations. The parade starts at the corner of Franklin and Water Street and will travel down Water to Oak, turn east on Oak and travel down to the Evans-Bosshard Park where the parade will end. Glow sticks will be handed out to participants who bring a canned good. PARENTS, PLEASE MEET STUDENTS AT THE END OF THE PARADE AT THE NEW SHELTER BUILDING.WE WILL BE SINGING A FEW SONGS FOR THE LIGHTING OF THE PARK. PLEASE MAKE PLANS AS TO HOW YOU WILL FIND EACH OTHER AT THE PARK. Please return the permission slip below to me by Thursday, November 19th so I have an idea of how many can sing at the park. Even if students are walking with a different group, they can certainly come join us to sing for the lighting of the park. I would like at least 6 to 8 chaperones to walk with us in the parade.

There is no transportation for the parade. Parents are responsible for getting students to and from the event. Thank you for your extra efforts in this. The theme is Beary Merry Holiday so carry a bear or wear a bear costume, Santa or reindeer hats. It all helps to get us in the holiday spirit. Please return the bottom portion by Nov. 19.
Happy holidays!

Mrs. Bright
Music Teacher
