The Ligon GT Chorus performances are a direct reflection of the work we do in class each day. When there is a performance, students are meeting many of the NC Essential Standards for Music Education. As a result, performances are mandatory and graded. *
If a singer has an excused absence from a performance, it must be approved prior to the performance in writing, preferably through email.  Please make Mrs. Castellano aware of any illness before the concert when able. An alternative assignment will be given to make-up the missing grade of the performance. If a singer misses a performance without prior notification, the singer will receive a 0. *
