We ask that adults also observe these rules in order to set a good example for the students, assist in this educational process, and provide everyone with a positive concert experience. Out of respect for the performers, please observe the following guidelines: Refrain from talking while anyone is performing. Remain seated during a musical selection. Any necessary movement should occur between pieces. Turn off your cell phone during the performance. Do not distract the performers in any way. (No flash pictures should be taken during the performance.) Applause is appreciated at the end of a selection. Refrain from yelling or whistling. If your child begins to cry, please remove him/her from the cafetorium . Small children should not be allowed to roam, dance, sing or otherwise interfere with the rights of others to enjoy the concert. All of our students have diligently prepared for this concert. We request that you stay for the entire performance and enjoy all of the music. Thank you for your cooperation!

For longer distances you’re better off flying…or for the ultra-prudent, taking a train. • “If we want to cut carbon pollution fast, moving beyond oil for transportation is an obvious strategy.” Michael Brune, Executive Director Sierra Club • If meat were dropped from diets globally, the reduction in CO2 emissions would almost equal total US annual emissions. • Idle electronics, plugged in but unused, consume the equivalent output of 12 power plants. Using a power strip that you can turn on and off can save the average American home up to $200 each year. • “The world is in a state of rapid change. Things are shifting in ways we don’t yet have the science for.” – Greg Asner, ecologist with Carnegie Institution for Science. • “We humans and our technology are the only hope for curing what we’ve caused.” – Tom Painter, NASA scientist • Swiss scientists say humanity could limit the effects if each person used just 2,000 watts of power a year. The average American consumes 12,000. A Bangladeshi uses 300. The challenge is conscientious reduction in the West, writes Naomi Klein in This Changes Everything. • “Forest walks can decrease one stress hormone by as much as 16%. • “Nature can improve creativity by up to 50%.” • “We love our state and national parks, but per capita visits have been declining since the dawn of email. One recent Nature Conservancy poll found that only about 10 percent of American teens spend time outside every day. According to research by the Harvard School of Public Health, American adults spend less time outdoors than they do inside vehicles – less than 5 percent of their day.” • “Imagine a therapy that had no known side effects, was readily available, and could improve your cognitive functioning at zero cost. It exists and it’s called interacting with nature.” Stephen Kaplan, environmental psychologist, University of Michigan • “In a recent study, some 70 percent of US mothers reported that they played outside every day as children; only 31 percent of their children do.” • “Every year some 2.9 trillion pounds of food – about a third of all that the world produces – never get consumed.” • “If food waste were a country, it would be the third largest producer of greenhouse gases in the world, after China and the US.” • “If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder…, he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in.” • “The lasting pleasures of contact with the natural world are not reserved for scientists but are available to anyone who will place himself under the influence of earth, sea and sky and their amazing life.” Thank you for viewing and considering!
