Please read carefully to be sure you've got the right times and dates for your ensemble! February 14: 8th Grade report time is 6:30 for the concert to begin at 7PM. We will then listen to the SCHS Concert Band and Symphonic Band. Students will wear their band polo with black from the waist down. February 15: 7th Grade report time is 6:00, in uniform, for the concert to begin at 6:30. 7th Grade may leave after their portion of the concert. 6th Grade report time is 6:30 and they will play at 7PM ( auditorium doors will open for 6th grade families when 7th Grade leaves).

As soon as they're released, they will be communicated. Private Lessons Help your student start the new year and new semester with confidence!
