Students have been working very hard preparing pieces for these concerts. Performance expectations are high, and attendance is required at these events. All students are to perform in black top/shirt, black pants/skirt, and black performance shoes. This dress attire is requested to give performers a clean, polished look so the focus can be maintained on the music itself. Any student unable to attend their respective concert, should notify their music teacher as soon as possible. Thank you for supporting your children in music education.
