Dear Parents,
We are in the process of ordering concert attire for our May 18 Spring Music Concert. All of the attire necessary is ordered by the music faculty. The students and parents do not need to place the order. The fee for each student is approximately $90 and will be charged against the student’s account. If a student has been in the choir or band in a previous semester they may already own the attire. In this case, they will not receive new attire and as such will not be charged. At the end of the school year, students will own the attire and may take it home. We do recommend that they take good care of it so they can use it again next year.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me by e-mail at
This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
or by phone at 407-469-2561 x281.
Sincerely,Mr. Aubrey Connelly
Fine Arts Department Chair
