COVID-19 DISTANCE LEARNING

Ridgeland Choir students will be given assignments through Canvas during our observance of the COVID-19 outbreak. Please visit the link on the left side of the screen labeled "COVID-19 Distance Learning" to access a list of assignments that are to be completed through Canvas. Due dates for these assignments are also included in the "COVID-19 Distance Learning" page. If you cannot see all the assignments, please use the filter options to show the month of "March" or "April" and the year "2020"

Practice Tracks will be posted in Canvas along with PDFs of sheet music. Paper copies of our music will be available for pick up in a bin outside the front office of Ridgeland High School on Wednesday, March 25th. 

These distance learning assignments are relevant to our content area and are designed to help our students retain and sharpen their musical literacy skills as well as musical independence. They may have a little fun, too!
