Hello Star Center Families,
Students need to order a music shirt which will be worn for orchestra as well as accent choir concerts. The shirts are $7.50 unless you're getting a larger size, which is specified on the attached sheet. Students in 4th grade received this today and 5th graders will get it on Friday.Please turn it into the Star Center Main Office by Wednesday, November 6. I will not be collecting any money

Thank you for your cooperation in getting these sheets returned on time so that we can place the order for the shirts
and get them in time for our first concert, coming up on December 3rd!

I
f you are going to be volunteering at Star Center (field trips, PTO events, classroom help, etc.) the District Administration requires a background check to be processed. Forms are available on-line or you can call the Star Center Office to request a form. Please note that the District Office needs
2 weeks to process each form.
Background checks are good for 3 years, so if you are unsure of whether you are still approved, you can call Star Center at 262-348-7000.
Thank you for your understanding and consideration.
