Welcome!
General Music Grades 5-6:
Please utilize Google Classroom to access class assignments and updates.
Chorus (all grades):
Parents: In addition to Classroom materials, students and parents will receive updates via the Remind app. This service will allows for you and your student to quickly receive reminders, fundraising info, field trips, etc. while maintaining privacy of phone numbers. Please be sure your contact information on the Parent Portal is up to date, as this is the information used to sign families up for Remind alerts.
If you are NOT signed up, or you have other adults/family members that need access to this communication, please reach out to me for the access code specific to your students’ class.
*Students are also HIGHLY advised to join their choir’s Remind group and check it for announcements.*

*Concert attendance is required and comprises a significant portion of the students’ grade. Any student missing the performance must arrange a time to perform their concert music for Ms. Burleigh to makeup the missed concert assessment. Absences due to illness or emergency must be submitted in writing ASAP. Unexcused absences result in an automatic 10% deduction of the performance grade.
*Attire for all performances is all black FORMAL attire and dress shoes (please no jeans, leggings, t-shirts, sneakers). You can wear a dress shirt, pants, skirts, dresses, or any combination of these in which you are comfortable. All attire must follow the school dress code. For each concert, students are welcome to add a pop of color or accessory appropriate for the concert theme, (i.e. tie, scarf, shoes, headband, etc.)
**If you have difficulties acquiring concert attire, please reach out ASAP so we can make accommodations.
Don’t be afraid to reach out if you have any questions!
Musically yours,
Ms. Burleigh
