CONCERT Procedures

All concerts start at 7pm and are on the Franklin Stage (gym)

Call time for all musicians is 6pm. Inspection grades are lowered by a letter grade for tardiness. 

​

Students may NOT stay on campus after school. They must go home to shower, change, eat and be back at school for 6pm. Only Tri-M students may stay since they are setting up the concert.

Please review Syllabus and Rubrics (Curriculum tab) for uniform and grading details 

​

VOLUNTEER Procedures

Volunteers need to show up at 6pm. 

Decorators in particular would show up at 3pm if the concert requires parent volunteers for decorations. 

We do not accept new volunteers on the day of the event, so please sign up as early as possible by emailing your music teacher.
