Dear FHSA Choir Families,

Important reminders for students:
Wear your choir uniform to school tomorrow:
Choir shirt
Khaki pants
Dark shoes
If your student has lost or stained their choir shirt, please have them wear a plain black t-shirt or a black FHSA spirit shirt instead. If the black shirt has a logo, students may turn the shirt inside out for the performance.
