Concert Dress Policy
If any member of the orchestra arrives for a concert or contest in what the orchestra director determines to be inappropriate concert attire, he/she will be responsible for acquiring the proper dress sent home, unable to perform in said concert. This will be treated the same as a “no show” to the concert and the student will receive a zero for a major grade. We have donated clothing and shoes for those who wish to borrow items. Please give the teacher at least a few day’s notice if you are in need of something from the closet so this does not interfere with other concert day preparations

Formal Uniform Sizing Guide
Tuxedo Shirt
How to measure: Wrap measuring tape around the neck base, leaving a finger-width room in the measurement. Then measure from the base of the neck, over the shoulder, and down the length of the arm to the wrist. It is better to be a bit roomy in the sleeve, than tight on the neck. All measurements in inches.
Formal Dress
How to measure: Measure around the fullest part of the bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor. The dress is very stretchy and loose around the waist and hips. Most dresses will need to be hemmed to prevent dragging. Try to avoid cutting fabric when hemming, but rather fold up the fabric and sew.
