This year’s Spring concert will be a rotating concert allowing for Arts Night viewing. This should also allow for sufficient seating for family members and friends in the auditorium. If you child is performing in the second half of the concert (fifth grade students), please view the art work around the school prior to the intermission. If your child is in the first half of the concert (fourth grade students), please stay in the auditorium until intermission. During intermission, please leave the auditorium to allow for parents/family of children performing in the second half of the show to enter and be seated.
Reporting times-
4th grade Band members- report to Mrs. Gendron’s room at 6:15 p.m.
4th grade Chorus members- report to the risers in the auditorium at 6:25 p.m.
5th grade Band members- report to Mrs. Peabody’s room during intermission.
5th grade Chorus members- report to the risers in the auditorium during intermission.

***** The Francis Wyman Arts Night will be taking place at the same time as the concert. Please be aware that parents are responsible for their child when they are not on stage performing. Fourth and Fifth grade Chorus students will NOT be reporting to a classroom prior to their performance as they did for the Winter Concert. Thank you.




Good Concert Etiquette Tips

1.Always enter and exit the auditorium between songs not during them. It is distracting to those performing as well as other audience members to be moving around the auditorium during the songs. (This also holds true for all chorus members reporting to the risers. Please come down to the risers between band songs, not during them.)
2. No talking during the performance. This too is distracting to the performers and audience members.
3. Turn off cell phones and other electronic devices. This allows for fewer distractions through the performance.
4. Video cameras and still shot cameras are welcome. That is as long as it does not disrupt the view of other audience members.
5. Watch the conductor for cues. If the conductor still has their arms raised during a piece (even if you hear silence),this means the song is not over. Watch for the conductor to lower their arms to their sides. This means the song is over and you can clap with enthusiasm!
6. Enjoy the show!
