A note on participation: Absences are acceptable within reason, but will not be allowed during Tech week and performances. If your child has conflicts during tech and performances, please consider whether or not this is the right fit for your child. Having students gone during these times makes it extremely difficult to ensure the show will be ready and be successful.
