PHMS Orchestra Schedule - also linked here!
The Reedy Winter Cluster Concert will be held on Monday, December 8th this year in the Reedy High School Auditorium. This will be different from our previous years in the Competition Gym, and we hope to move this awesome event to the new Fine Arts Facility next school year. We are so excited to continue this tradition in a different setting!
Please note this year, there will be four separate student performances over the course of the evening, listed below. Students are welcome to leave after their performance. The only exception would be 8th graders who will need to stay until the very end to perform Let it Snow for the finale. The concert is a graded assessment for all students.
