The Music in the Parks trip is Friday, June 4th. In short, the day entails going to a local venue near Disney and perfoming in a musical festival. Then, we travel to Disney where there is an evening awards ceremony. We generally are home between 10:30-11:00pm.
Students should plan on arriving at school on Friday at 7:00am. Students should be dressed in their concert attire. Obviously, students should bring a change of clothes. Please refer to the attached timeline and information sheet for more information.
Individuals who want to ride the bus will be allowed to based on availability of room. If you are intent on attending, be prepared to drive (unless you are coming as an official chaperone, of which there are only a limited number).
