Sharing the good news

I recently received notice that I was awarded a professional development grant from the Washington Township Schools Foundation which will help send FIVE secondary choral directors (3 middle and 2 H.S.) to ShowChoir Camps of America for a week-long workshop next summer. I have been to this wonderful camp in the past, and can honestly say, that there is nothing I have ever done that has had a more positive impact on my teaching. This is not only a great camp for teachers, but for students as well. Everyone comes back so excited about choir. Kids who go to camp get GREAT preparation for the opportunities that we offer in Washington Township in the choral departments. I am so thankful to the Washington Township Schools Foundation and just wanted to share that with you. Please consider supporting the Foundation if you can.

Also, I will send information out to you regarding this camp in a future mailing. I have several students and parents who are interested in learning more.
