Sanborn Central 2020 Christmas Concert
Our music staff, Mrs. Easton and Mrs. Hofer and their students have been working hard to learn and prepare pieces of music to celebrate the season. As a district, it is important that we give them all an opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned and allow a platform to perform on, even in this difficult time that we are experiencing related to the COVID-19 pandemic. To ensure that we have a program, we are changing the format this year. On December 8th, 2020, our concert will be held as scheduled. However, the timeframe will be changed. Beginning at 1:30 pm, the SC Middle and High School will kick off the afternoon with their portion of the program. Once they have completed their concert, they will then be released back to class for the remainder of the school day. Then at 2:30 pm, the SC Elementary School portions of the concert will commence.
Regarding attendance, we encourage all in-house family members to come and enjoy the program. If extended family would like to attend, this will be allowed as well. Currently at SC we are in our “BLUE” level of our Stay Well Plan, which means that we will require anyone in our building to wear a mask while inside and social distancing will be practiced. We will not have any refreshments as in the past and unfortunately Santa Clause will not be able to be in attendance this year. Also, this concert will be broadcast on our Santel channel as well as live streamed for those who would like to watch but cannot or choose not to attend in person.
We appreciate all the understanding and patience that everyone has had throughout this year. It has been and will continue to be difficult to navigate. Hopefully, this activity will provide everyone with a little cheer to lift our spirts!
*Parents, grades 5-12th will perform at 1:30 and grades PK-4th grade will be at 2:30. If you are unable to make the concert please tune in to Sanborn Central TV channel 107. The concert will also be livestreamed, but information is not yet available regarding this.
