Orcas High School Senior Juliette Mann announced this week that there will be a choir for middle and high schoolers.
Directed by Orcas School District Music teacher Pamela Wright, the choir will be co-ed and will sing a mixture of a cappella, modern, and traditional music. The choir is Jules Mann’s Senior Project, required of all High School Seniors for Washington State and Orcas Island School District graduation.
The choir will practice for approximately 35 days, from November 14 to March 1. It will meet in the school’s band room from 3:05 to 3:55 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
The choir plans to participate in the school’s concerts, and host its own concert at the community church at the end of the season, in March 2013.
Currently, the cost to join the choir is $80. Jules says, “Eighty dollars is a lot of money. Some students can’t afford to pay anything.
“If you would like to make a donation, or sponsor one student, it would be greatly appreciated. All donations are handled by the Funhouse Commons, and may be sent to:
The Funhouse Commons
30 Pea Patch Lane
Eastsound, WA 98245
Please designate “For Middle/High School Choir” in the memo line of any check.
