Festival

Festival (also known as our annual assessment) will be held March 14th (band) and 15th (orchestra including full orchestra).  This is a mandatory event. 

In preparation for this, we will be participating in a pre-festival concert with the High School and Severn River ensembles on March 6th (orchestra including full orchestra) and 7th (band).  This will be a very important rehearsal for the actual assessment and it is also mandatory unless pre-approval is given by Mr. S.

Full uniforms will be required for these events: MRMS sweater, MRMS polo, Khaki (tan) pants, dark dress shoes (brown or black and absolutely no athletic shoes), and dark socks.  At assessment, there is a graded category for uniformity.  

The band permission slip and orchestra permission slip contain LOTS of information about rehearsal schedules leading up to the event, the concerts on the 6th and 7th, and schedule for Festival itself, and a request for chaperones, so please read them carefully and return the permission slip as soon as possible.
