Good Morning,

As we enter the final week of school before winter break I wanted to take a moment to share some details.  

First of all, I have many things to return/give to families after the concert. In the Lockville Rd lobby we will have Ornaments made by Ms. Sewell for the seniors.  She was late to senior night and gave me the ornaments to pass out at a later date.  I will also layout the remaining senior banners and posters that were not picked up.  

Non-senior related items will be available for collection in the band room. We will pull out all of the marching shoes and show shirts from NYC uniform boxes, as well as access to the marching band lost and found.  Anything not claimed after Thursday will be tossed and be gone forever! 

Dresscode
We have been calling the dress for this concert "Holiday Nice".  This week's concert is one of two concerts in which band members do not have to dress in Concert Black attire.  With this said, please do not allow any of your children to assume incorrectly that "Holiday Nice" includes any of the following: Tennis shoes, slides, crocks, shorts, skirts above the knee, sweats, sweatshirts or any other athletic attire.  Last but not least, all of our young ladies in the band should remember not to wear anything that is overly revealing.  (Band students will be seated at eye level for the majority of the audience.) 

Please feel free to accessorize with something festive and appropriate for the season. For example: santa hat, reindeer antlers, Christmas lights etc.

Concert Details
This is a very short concert.  With that said, I'd hate for you to arrive late and miss the performance.  Plan to arrive before 7pm to ensure you catch your child's performance.  

District Door Policy
It is the policy of PLSD that no outside door be propped or unlocked before or during concerts.  Regardless of how I feel about this policy, it is 100% about student safety.  Veteran parents are very good about opening the doors for people behind them.  Please help people enter the building.  With that said, this is yet another reason to not be late. The chances of being able to slip in late after 7 will become increasingly difficult.
