The students have been working hard for several months now preparing for the UIL Concert & Sight-Reading Contest which is right around the corner.  Before they perform at Clear Lake H.S. for judges, they will be performing their contest music at Pre-UIL concerts as a dress rehearsal.

Please come and support your child and encourage any other friends/family to come as it is always more enjoyable for the students to perform a concert with a large audience and loud applause.  If you are able, please consider coming to Clear Lake HS and supporting the students at their UIL performances as well.

Make sure to get there early in case the performances run ahead of schedule. No one will be allowed to enter the auditorium once the director takes the stand. And double-check the calendar for time adjustments. Although unlikely, the preliminary times listed here are subject to change. If you want to make sure you don’t miss the performance, sign up in Charms to be a chaperone!
