This year the 7th/8th Grade Chorus will once again have the opportunity to purchase t-shirts. These garments will be ordered through ImageMarket, a screenprinting outlet that produces custom designs. Members of the chorus voted on this year’s t-shirt design, as pictured to the right. The shirt color will be navy blue with gold lettering, and “Hopewell Jr. Chorus” will replace the school name at the bottom. Shirts will be available for $13.00 each, with the option of individual name printing on the back for an additional $5.00. Once the orders have been received and submitted, the students should receive their shirts within two weeks. If interested in purchasing a t-shirt, please complete the order form and submit it to Mr. Toporski in Room 140 no later than MONDAY, OCTOBER 29, 2012. Orders received beyond this date will not be processed
7th Grade General Music students interested in earning some extra credit may do so this week by creating their own techno song. You may use the online mixer at Soundation.com or a program like Garage Band for Apple computers and iOS devices. Here are the guidelines for creating your song:

The deadline for this extra credit is FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 2012. You may bring in your song on any day between now and then. Glad to see all the students after summer break! It sounds like everyone did some interesting things during their time off. Hopefully you're all refreshed and ready for another exciting year of school! I'm pleased to announce that we were able to purchase three new Remo drums for our use in the general music classes. My goal is to keep expanding our percussion inventory so that students get the chance to experience and make music on a variety of instruments from around the world. As we get back into the swing of things, please remember that I will be keeping our website and social media pages up to date with all the latest class information. That said, everyone's first assignment of the year is to share your Course Syllabus or Handbook with your parents, then returned the completed Signature Sheet no later than Friday, August 31st. Extra copies can be obtained from your class page on the website, or by asking me at school. We have joined the social networking world! Hopewell Jr. High Music can now be found on Twitter and Facebook. Students and parents can follow either or both accounts for instant updates on assignments, projects, and event information. A social networking bar has been added to the left side of the website for easier access to these pages.
Friday was our last day of school for the year! As we take a couple months off to recuperate and plan for next year, the construction of the Hopewell Jr. High Music website will be one of my priorities. Please continue to check back as the site goes through its construction process. I am hoping that this becomes a useful place for information for both students and parents alike. Enjoy your summer, and we'll see you August 29th for our first day back! |
