2013 Big Trip Payment info


Payment information for 2013 “Big Trip”
*Modified August 24, 2012
$1500 is the NEW trip price for both students and parents, as long as we have a minimum of 35 students, 5 parent chaperons, and Ms Silberman attending - 

PAYMENT SCHEDULE

September 19, 2012 $100 non-refundable Deposit (unless bumped for priority)
  • Student participation is prioritized due to the limited amount of spaces, skill level required, and schedule (rehearsals will be during or after after school Symphony rehearsals)
  • The priority listing for student participation is as follows:
    • 1st priority for Chamber Students,
    • 2nd priority for Sinfonietta students in Symphony including freshman (because of the rehearsal schedule),
    • 3rd priority for 10th-12th grade Sinfonietta students not in Symphony,
    • 4th priority for 10th-12th grade students in String Orchestra,
    • 5th priority for freshmen in Sinfonietta who are not in Symphony.
    • The only students not allowed on the trip are freshmen in String Orchestra – this is because of the musical skill level required and the rehearsal schedule.
Scholarship forms will be made available in mid-September
