CARNEGIE ORCHESTRA NEWS (new info!!!)
We have some new info! In the next couple of weeks once the company starts buying our tickets for things, we will have more of a schedule. Please email us or text via remind with any questions or concerns at any time! Ms. Lansou and I will be available right after the performance on 10/25 to meet with any Carnegie parents. Medical forms coming soon. We would like for the boys to wear tuxes and the girls to wear dressy black. Please let us know if this is an issue. We would like to approve the girls' proposed outfits in February so that we are all dressing on about the same level and to make sure everything has some kind of sleeve and appropriate coverage. Please fill out the questionnaire if you would like to travel with us or meet us in NYC: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1jdgT1H1wBzwuu3uWmOYHu2StguB-BcJ9SoSSVkstBB8/edit
