SPRING CONCERTS:  MARCH 5 & 6

The Music Dept. Spring Concerts are the week AFTER we return.  The classical choirs will be performing on Monday, March 5, along with the Lincoln Symphony Orchestra (other orchestras and bands will be on Tuesday night).  The concerts will both begin at 7:00 pm and will be held at Lincoln Glen Church.  Here is the ticket link:  http://lincolnperformingarts.com/music/tickets.html.

We will be ordering pizza for dinner for those who need it and will organize car pools for students needing rides to the church.  Please tell your parents NOW so that they can plan accordingly.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TOUR

We have room on the trip for another 9 travelers!  If you want to be one of them, please tell me ASAP. Look at the tour page.

SO WHAT’S A K-BUCK, ANYWAY?

K-bucks are the “money” that you are awarded when you earn a perfect score on your quizzes or your on-time theory/history assignments.  I also give K-bucks out for exceptional in-class work and answers to questions/challenges. Look at what’s available HERE!

Save your K-bucks and cash them in in the K-buck store, which will be open Wednesdays at lunch.

LINCOLN CHOIRS ON TWITTER!

Twitter’s the way that I can send you ALL a message without having to type in a bunch of cell numbers when I need to send you a quick text.  This is especially useful when I need to CHANGE a call time, outfits, remind you about a quiz....you get the idea.  Facebook is great, but Twitter is PERFECT for this.  It is SUPER easy to join and learn how to use!  So, please join, and then add these pages:

http://twitter.com/LincolnChoirs  for ALL singers (and parents!)

http://twitter.com/ChamberChorale  Chamber Chorale students (and parents)
http://twitter.com/LHSEstetica  Estetica students (and parents)

PARENTS:  THERE’S A PLACE FOR YOU, TOO!
Knowing that parents read this as often as students (sometimes even MORE often!), here are some announcements specifically for you.  You can find them all at the Parent Zone on this website.  I will update them as necessary throughout the year, but you will find that the announcement change every couple of weeks.  Click here to go there now.

AMKMUSIC.COM

This website is the primary method by which I disseminate information to my students and their families.  The Lincoln pages have been created to keep students and parents informed and on top of school activities/student assignments.  You’ll find recordings, handouts, instructions, maps...in short, virtually all the tools to help you succeed in choir.

Enjoy your week off next week!  We’ve been working hard and need the rest!  PRACTICE FOR THE CONCERT!!—Miss K
