To add event dates to your calendar, please click here for link to the NHS Music Boosters Calendar. Every effort is made to keep the calendar current. The Music Directors may add an event or adjust the report time which may not be changed in the calendar; however, the information is always given to the student during class and posted on the classroom whiteboard.
Chorus Fee
There is fee for each music student. The NHS Music fees are used to pay for concert piano accompaniment for choir concerts, clinicians, competition fees, miscellaneous music supplies, and the music banquet. The Music Fee does not include concert attire!
IMPORTANT!
When sending in funds, please send a check or money order (not cash). Checks are to be made payable to NHS Music. Write your child’s name, and the purpose of the check on the memo line.
Note:
YOUR MUSIC FEE IS DUE IN SEPTEMBER! Checks can be deposited in the Music Booster locker in the band room or in the Orchestra room.
Report Time
Report time is always earlier than the event time. Chorus members usually need to arrive at the Choral room approximately one hour ahead of time. You will be emailed the report time for events about a week before the actual dates.
“To be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be late, to be late is not to be.”
Please make sure your student arrives in plenty of time to have all of their equipment and uniform ready to go at Report Time.
Fundraisers
The Band/Chorus trip for this year is to Disney World. It is scheduled to take place in the spring of 2021. The trip is self funded by those students wishing to participate. We offer a fundraising opportunity each year where the students can earn money to help them pay for their trip.
Photos
We usually ask for a parent to take informal photos at our music events to post on our Newark High School Music Program Facebook page so they are available for everyone to see (no names are posted) and download. We are always looking for more photographers. If you would like to contribute some photos, please contact our social media chairperson.

Our chorus and band perform at the Newark High School graduation ceremony each year.

NHS Chorus seniors sing the alma mater for the final time as high school students.

Alma Mater
When, through thy portals, fair old Newark's twilight falls, Bringing its silence to our high school halls, In that happy moment, love for Alma Mater swells, And the heart outpouring of her glory tells. Chorus: Newark, Alma Mater, Fairest theme of all our praise, Newark, Alma Mater, Ever blest thy days. Far from thy portals yearly rove thy loving sons; Yet, in their dreaming, e'er thy name returns. 'Tis the same fond spirit, which the memory gushes o'er. And the lips but echo that old song of yore. |
