Cockrill Orchestra

All the orchestra students received a document this week with concert details.

Concert, Philharmonic, Sinfonietta, and Honors students got this paper.

Beginners got this paper.

Please read over the document that applies to your student, and take a moment and watch the video that is linked at the bottom of each document.  It’s the same video in both documents.  Email if you have questions!

This is the video we showed in class today – please review it and help us spread the word about proper concert etiquette as we prepare for our next concerto 10/24 at MNHS!

Our annual CMS Fine Arts trip to Six Flags over Texas is coming up on October 14th. A flyer went home yesterday, so check your child’s orchestra binder if they have not already shown it to you. Only 7th and 8th grade students are able to attend this trip. The cost per ticket is $40, and money is due by Friday, October 6th. We cannot take money after the deadline has passed, so be sure to get your money to us on time! I have set up PayPal if you choose to use it to pay for the tickets. Questions? Email us!
