Wednesday, May 9 HMS Spring Orchestra Concert 7:00pm
CONCERTS ARE A LARGE PART OF THE GRADE. Any unexcused absences from concerts will result in the lowering of the grade. Please refer to the Grading Policy for more information. Any conflicts with concert attendance must be presented to Mrs. Stepson in writing no less than 4 weeks prior to the concert.

All concerts take place in the Middle School Auditorium. Other performance opportunities will be announced during the school year

** PLEASE READ- Policy for ALL HMS Performing Groups (Band, Orchestra, Choir) **
Bottom: All students must wear long BLACK (not grey, not dark blue) PANTS. Shorts, capris, and skirts will not be acceptable.

Top: Boys should wear a **black or white shirt** with a collar (polo or dress shirt). Tie is optional. Girls should wear a nice **black or white** top that conforms to the school dress code (no spaghetti straps, low cut necklines, bare shoulders, or racerbacks).

Shoes: Dress shoes that coordinate with black pants. Please no athletic shoes.

This policy was discussed by the entire HMS music department in an effort to eliminate dress code and safety concerns at our concerts. Students who do not follow the concert dress guidelines will be required to change clothes before the performance or risk losing the grade for the concert. If there is a financial concern with buying the proper concert attire for your child please notify Mrs. Stepson.
