| The Role of Parents |
|
The Upper Canada Chorus is a cooperative organization that relies on the support and contribution of parents willing to help us create a meaningful experience for their children. We believe that students will benefit the most from our program when parents are actively sharing in the experience with their children. The single most important contribution you can make to your children in this venture is come to concerts and events. Bring friends and neighbours, and help us achieve a respectable audience. This shows that you care, and actively validates the hard work of your children. We structure the UCC program as sort of a "super-vitamin" of extra-curricular options. Music provides the perfect environment to teach critical skills like leadership, discipline and critical thinking. We attempt at every step to build value into our program that trenscends the musical experience and helps to equip young people for a lifetime of discovery. As parents, you play an integral role in the creation and maintenance of such an environment. Check out our Volunteer section and discover the many ways you can get involved! |
