It has come to my attention that it would be easier for many families to drive their student directly to Independence HS on Saturday rather than coming to PHS first. If you plan to drive your student directly to Independence, I need a note from you stating that ASAP (not later than in class on Friday). Students are not to drive themselves and students may only travel with their parents. For those who meet us at Independence, we will meet at 10:15 am outside the theater. Students who meet us there must bring their own instrument!
Carpool info- We still need several more parent drivers! Several students brought driver forms home today. If you are able to drive, please get that filled out and returned tomorrow. You can also download the Parent Driver form here if your student did not bring a form. Please confirm with me that you will drive and how many seats (excluding yourself) are in your vehicle. For students traveling by carpool, we will meet at PHS at 9:20 am.
Performance info- Students should arrive to their call time (9:20 @ PHS or 10:15 @ Independence) dressed in their performing attire with their instrument. I will collect all music in class on Friday and bring that box. The performances are free and open to the public. We have a scheduled warm-up time, then our performance, then sight reading, then our group photo. We should finish at Independence at 12:15.
Directions- Independence HS is located at 1776 Educational Park Dr, but DO NOT use GPS or an online map to get you there as it will put you in the wrong place on the campus! From 680 north, exit McKee west or left (toward 101) then turn right on N Jackson Ave. You will turn left into the parking lot on your left before the football field.
