Event Procedures

• Step 1: You will receive an informational email about the upcoming performance opportunity about two months before the event date. This email will contain specific event details and an Interest Form to fill out. Filling out the Interest Form does not guarantee a student’s participation. This interest form is to gauge interest in the event.
• Step 2: After you complete the Interest Form, student names will be given to instructors to confirm that the student will be a good fit for the specific performance opportunity and will have a piece ready in time for the performance date.
• Step 3: Once the student’s instructor has confirmed they are ready to participate, our front desk team will then determine how many students will be able to participate in the event given the event timeframe.
• Step 4: You will receive an email about a month before the event confirming your student’s performance participation or waitlist status, which will include additional event details, including the specific event fee. At that time, the performance event fee will be charged to the card on the student’s account.

If you have more questions about how to participate in a performance opportunity, please see the front desk!
