Beginning this year, CMS will now have a Performing Arts Department. In conjunction with our chorus and music classes we will begin a focus on drama and theatre. We are chartering a Jr. Thespian Troup through The GA Thespians, an Education Theatre Association Affiliate. In class, we will continue our focus on sight-reading, theory and choral performance as well as introduce a unit on music history. Your child will have several performance opportunities throughout the year including two chorus concerts, spring musical, Thespian Conference and a new production slated for the end of the school year, CMS Cabaret. This is going to be a fun, full year and I welcome any parent involvement!
