Springbrook Middle School 6-8 Choir
Mrs. Barbara Schenck, Director
Dear Parents & Students,
Welcome to choir! I am so excited to have you in class and hope you are ready to take a chance at achieving more than you could imagine. You will work individually to improve your singing and understanding of music and we will work together to create blend – which produces beautiful music. Come prepared every day and try your best!
There are several key words and approaches to learning we will focus us this year. First, you will always be asked to THINK! It is my favorite word (thanks to my mom) and thinking helps us stay focused. We will focus on Springbrook PRIDE: Productivity, Respect, Integrity, Determination and Excellence in our classroom, the hallways, the bathrooms, cafeteria and in every conversation with every person.
Listed below are several procedures to help you understand how our class will function.
Class Procedures:
Grading:
Concert Clothing:
Due to receiving some generous grants, choir uniforms will be ordered in September. My hope is for ALL choirs to have uniforms IF there is enough money. We will start with 8th and 7th graders and then move to 6th graders. PARENTAL help is needed to measure all students. If you are willing to help, please email me at bschenck@adrian.k12.mi.us Black Shoes will be needed for every student. Any problems, please let me know.
Parent Involvement: Volunteer Forms MUST be filled out for each event per District guidelines.
Please mark these dates on all your calendars!

Dear Parents & Students,
Welcome to choir! I am so excited to have you in class and hope you are ready to take a chance at achieving more than you could imagine. You will work individually to improve your singing and understanding of music and we will work together to create blend – which produces beautiful music. Come prepared every day and try your best!
There are several key words and approaches to learning we will focus us this year. First, you will always be asked to THINK! It is my favorite word (thanks to my mom) and thinking helps us stay focused. We will focus on Springbrook PRIDE: Productivity, Respect, Integrity, Determination and Excellence in our classroom, the hallways, the bathrooms, cafeteria and in every conversation with every person.
Listed below are several procedures to help you understand how our class will function.
Class Procedures:
- Folder – Each student will be assigned a folder. You are expected to have your folder and be on the riser by the time the bell rings. There will be a pencil in the folder at the beginning of the year but if the pencil is missing, you must have one to replace it. You must have a pencil at all times.
- Tardies – Students will be marked tardy if you enter late without a pass. Detentions will be assigned after the 3rd tardy. This includes 1st hour.
- Water Fountain – you can you a water bottle/cup in class daily. Fill it before class begins!
- Participation – Each student is a vital part of the choir, so positive participation is a must! Participation means: being in place, ready to sing when the bell rings, not disrupting other students’ learning, and giving your best so you can excel as you learn and rehearse music. No gum is allowed.
- Behavior – Positive behavior is a must. We work closely together so if there are conflicts we must work together to resolve them. If any student is concerned about an issue with another student in class, you should talk with me. Poor behavior will result in being sent to the office, which will affect your grade. Students will be warned once before being sent out. Students who choose to have ongoing behavioral issues will be asked to have a meeting with parents, teacher and a principal.
Grading:
- Participation counts 5 points per day. If a student is absent, they will not receive points for that day. They can easily make up the points missed by writing a response and submitting it to Mrs.Schenck.Choir@gmail.com. Participation is usually 60% of the trimester grade.
- Written assignments – students will write on various topics involved in choir and music. These assignments add up to around 5-10% of the trimester grade. All written assignments will be submitted to Google Classroom or Mrs.Schenck.Choir@gmail.com. All assignments need to be saved in your Google Site, as your Process Journals, that will follow you to high school.
- Music Theory/Sight-reading – there will be a unit where students will learn the basics of reading and understanding music notes, rhythms, time and key signatures and more. In the first trimester, theory is worth the remaining percentage of the grade. We will focus on sight-reading throughout the year.
- Concerts – There is no concert in the first trimester. We hope to sing the National Anthem at some athletic events. For the second and third trimesters, concerts are a large portion of the student’s trimester grade. The dates for the concerts are listed below, and are required. I hope to add some extra performance opportunities!
- Extra Credit – it can be earned by attending any musical concert. Bring in the program for 10 pts.
Concert Clothing:
Due to receiving some generous grants, choir uniforms will be ordered in September. My hope is for ALL choirs to have uniforms IF there is enough money. We will start with 8th and 7th graders and then move to 6th graders. PARENTAL help is needed to measure all students. If you are willing to help, please email me at bschenck@adrian.k12.mi.us Black Shoes will be needed for every student. Any problems, please let me know.
Parent Involvement: Volunteer Forms MUST be filled out for each event per District guidelines.
- Chaperone – We need parents to chaperone for the trips to District and State Festivals in March and May. You are needed to ride the bus to and from these events as well as help assist during the festivals. To chaperone, you will need to complete the Volunteer Form, available online or in the school office.
- Sewing and Mending – if you have talent with thread, we could use your help to keep the school-owned parts of the concert attire looking nice.
- Fundraising – On Tuesday, September 17th we have our only middle school choir fundraiser planned. We will be running the concession stand at the 7/8 football games. We must have parents helping! Please check below if you are willing to help. This money goes directly into the classroom and to help students.
- Music Boosters - From 7-12 grades, music students have the opportunity to raise money in an individual account to be used for music events such as going to Chicago to see musicals, etc. Most of these big events happen in high school so if you start building your account now that money will be bountiful in high school. Watch for more information such as SCRIPT and the Apple Pie Fundraiser.
- Choir T-shirts are available for $8
Please mark these dates on all your calendars!
