Hello, Lightridge Chorus Families -

It was great to see so many of you at our parent-student meeting last week. If you were unable to attend, please connect with me. Please review the slides from the evening with important information regarding the year. All students received their uniforms this week. Please check with your students to make sure they have all of the items needed [dress, dress shirt, pants, jacket, chorus t-shirt]. This week also marks the halfway point for the first quarter, please check your students’ grades.

Lightridge Chorus Donations

Cookie Dough Fundraiser

The cookie dough fundraiser sheets were distributed at the parent-student meeting last week. These profits are intended for students’ individual accounts as they raise money for their individual fees for our spring trip to Miami. The fundraiser runs until Friday, October 6th. Students are responsible for collecting the money [$20 per box] for their orders and keeping track of it. On Friday, October 6th, students will submit their order forms and ONE CHECK [made payable to Lightridge Chorus] for the total of all of their orders - CHECK ONLY. Mrs. Rutan will keep track of each student’s profits and subtract that from their last Miami invoice.
