Students should have eaten a meal before the concert. When students arrive for their evening concert, fourth grade band students will leave cases lined up in the hallway, then take instruments and music to the multipurpose room.  Fourth grade band students will only play in the multipurpose when warming up or tuning with the director.  Fifth grade band students will leave cases in the band room and remain there to warm-up and tune.  There will not be any playing in the hallways.   Students must be in assigned locations, not wandering the halls.  Coats and jackets will remain with parents, or be left with cases.  At the beginning of the concert fifth grade band students will sit in chairs placed underneath the basketball goal, and will move into the concert setting when directed.  

Audience behavior is extremely important.  Students may not talk during the concert.  Students may not touch any other person’s instrument.  Students receive a grade for the concert performance.  Students are expected to demonstrate proper etiquette as a performer and as an audience.
