Additional Spring Concert Information


Please review the following information from Mrs. Mann:

The Spring Concert has finally arrived!  Doors open a half hour before the show, and students are expected to arrive between 6:00 and 6:15 on the evening of their performance.  Please drop off and pick up your child(ren) at the classroom.  As the children are presenting two full performances, it is important that all students are present for both shows.

Remember, YOU MUST HAVE A TICKET TO ATTEND THE SHOW.  Young children who are able to sit on an adult's lap do not need a ticket.  Please plan to arrive early, as parking is limited.  If you are unexpectedly delayed, late seating will take place during the first appropriate pause in the program.  Assigned seats are not guaranteed after the performance starts.  Latecomers will be seated in the back out of courtesy to the performers and other audience members.


Panorama Hills School has hired a professional videographer to record all performances, and copies of the DVD will be available for purchase.  We ask that you please refrain from taking photos or video of the performance, as it interferes with the sight lines of other audience members and blocks access for the performers.

Thank you for your support and encouragement, and enjoy the show!
