Mid-Year Concert
Performing:
Youth Choir
- Parents may pick students up in the band room after they perform if they have no more ensembles to perform in.
- Everyone is invited to stay for the whole concert (should last about an hour and 15 mins)
- 6th grade band: leave the risers after our performance and get your instrument/music from your family member and follow Mr. Keller’s instructions.
- Sit with your family during the beginning of the concert and after you perform.
- It is asked that all performers stay for the entire concert. It is only polite and good concert manners to do so. The concert will last just under over an hour and 15 minutes. Only students excused in advance may leave before the end of the concert. Please treat other performers as you would like to be treated.
- Be courteous during the other performances. There should be no talking during while others are performing.
