WELCOME BACK!
I hope everyone had a relaxing and restful winter break! Mrs. Holthus and I are excited to begin the 2nd Semester! The next several months are filled with the musical: Legally Blonde, Harmony Explosion, Solo/Ensemble Contest, State Large Ensemble, State Solo/Ensemble, Spring Show and Graduation! Make the most of all of these awesome opportunities by doing your best!
For seniors, this will be your last chance to participate in many of these events. It is temping to "check out" or "coast" through your final semester of high school. I encourage you to do just the opposite--you will never get this time back. Your full commitment will impact the memories you will have and the legacy that you will leave for choir at Olathe East!
Let's have an EPIC second semester!

ADDITIONAL NEW YORK TRIP INFORMATION
A few points of clarification concerning the trip:
- Parents/family members are welcome to attend.
- Parents/family may choose to plan/pay for their trip through our travel company or make their own arrangements.
- A student may add themselves to the trip after the first payment is due. They simply owe the total amount due to that date. Eg. If a student decides to go on the trip on March 8 they owe the January, February and March payments ($600).
- The trip company has assured me that alternate arrangements can be made for any football players who may be involved in a State Football game. There could be a $100 transfer fee for airfare.
