All performance classes will perform concerts at the dates and times listed on the calendar.  Attendance at all school concerts and out-of-school festivals is mandatory.  Students missing a performance will receive no credit for 10% of their quarter grade.  Students using school instruments who miss a concert may be required to return the instrument to the school program.  Also, out of respect for all of the groups performing at each school concert, we require that all students remain in attendance for the entire concert.  We are very careful to plan concerts of a length of approximately an hour.  Since we continue to work to develop good concert etiquette and an understanding and appreciation for all ensembles, we ask that you and your family remain for the entire concert. If you are unable to attend please make sure your child is picked up promptly after rehearsals and performances.

Concert dress is required at all concerts.
