1st Annual Holiday Sing-Along

Indialantic Elementary will be hosting the 1st Holiday Sing-Along on December 22nd at 8:30 am. This 30-min festive event will include traditional holiday favorites sung by all students and the Indialantic Chorus leading the songs. Students will be sitting under the pavilion, and this will be a sing-along for all who attend. We are inviting parents to attend this event! Parents need to complete the process below to ensure a smooth morning and reduce the wait time for parents who want to attend. Parents who attend will be standing along the edge of the pavilion. In the event of severe weather, there will be three sessions in the cafeteria (times are approximate)- 8:20 for K and 5th; 9:00 for 1st and 4th and 9:45 for 2nd, 3rd & 6th grade.

If you want to join us for the Holiday Sing Along, please complete the following:

All family members must be pre-registered in the system. This happens if you have been at the school for an event and had your Driver’s License scanned, then you are pre-registered in our security system. If you are not in the system, please stop by the front office prior to December 22 to scan your driver’s license. This is a safety measure throughout Brevard Public Schools.
Sign up on the on the SignUp Genius at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D45A9AA29A7FBC34-46738644-1stannual#/ so we can print your visitor’s badge. Please sign up by December 20th so the badges will be ready to go.
Check in at the front office by 8:15 to ensure you are at the pavilion by 8:30. Although we don’t have seating for volunteers, if someone is in need of seating for medical purposes, please let us know. Families may also bring lawn chairs and sit in the grassy area surrounding our pavilion.

This holiday event is not a performance by a specific grade level, but a true sing-along so students may be difficult to spot and parents will be standing/sitting along the edges. We welcome your participation at what will become an annual event!
