Welcome Back!!!

Welcome back to Ocoee Middle School!!! 

We are so excited to begin this school year!  With hard work and commitment, we can achieve a great deal this year!!  Here are a few items of interest for the following months.  We will be sending home a choir calendar in the coming weeks as well.  

1.  Tuesday, September 23rd, the 6th Grade Choir will be performing at the first PTO Meeting of the year.  All 6th grade choir students will need to be in attendance that evening.  The Meeting will be at 6:30 pm.  All student will be expected to be in the choir room by 6:00 for arrangement and vocal warm-ups. 

2.  Also on Tuesday, September 23rd, after the PTO meeting, we will have our very first Choir Booster Meeting.  It will take place at 7:30 (which is about the time the PTO meeting should end).  We will discuss important business that pertains to the choir department.  This is a parent organization, and you are a vital part of what we accomplish in our program.  Please make plans to attend.  These meetings typically last no longer than 30 mins.  Thank you! 

3.  A couple of other dates of interest.  Our Christmas concert and rehearsal day have been scheduled for Monday, December 1st at the Lee University Conn Center at 7:00.  Rehearsal Day is during the school day.  Your child will be bussed from OMS to Lee University at no cost to you during their related arts classes.  Attendance at school this day is mandatory.  

4.  Our fruit fundraiser delivery day will be Friday, December 5th.  More information will be sent home about this when fundraising materials arrive.
