Just saw the bit here on the west coast (9 a.m. Pacific, 12 noon Eastern) with Mr. B.
Congratulations on receiving the $10,000 award from Office Depot and $5,000 for PS22.
From Mr. B's shock, I bet he takes his $10,000 and turns it back into his PS 22 chorus for equipment/expenses.
Now, how about lining up other corporate sponsors to take the PS 22 chorus on tour!
It's expensive, but doable. Probably a little late to be planning for the summer, but a goal for vacations/summer during the 2009-2010 school year.
What do you think?
How about a visit by the PS 22 chorus to Bonnie Hunt's sisters school, Lions Park and Mary Hunt in Mt. Prospect, Il? The school is very close to O'Hare and maybe JetBlue would reduce/comp seats for the kids?
Hey Mr. B. I am a 2nd grade teacher in South Florida, Miami area, completely blown away by what you have done with your 5th grade chorus! The passion on the kids faces is so evident. They have been taught to really think about what they are singing. I am impressed. I love it!
ANONYMOUS: that's awesome that you enjoyed the show! and ha!! i'd love to visit bonnie's sister's school. if she's half as cool as bonnie, she's one of the coolest people ever....
EM: thanks for your suppport and kindness! (by the way, before i taught music in 22, i was a second grade teacher too!!!) :)
A friend put the PS22 Chorus's cover of Viva la Vida on her blog this morning, and I've since forwarded it to everyone I know via email and Facebook. Seeing this (and a few of the other songs now) feeds my hope for humanity. Great job to you and the kids!
