Jasper High School Orchestra

Welcome back everyone! We are so excited to be back in person to make music.

Please click on Beginning of Year to get started.

Aside from our Spring Concert, which will be on May 15th @ Christ United Methodist Church, we will have one more major event to close out what has been a great and restorative year for our program.

Students have their invitation for the West Orchestra Cluster Banquet happening on Friday, May 12th from 6:30 to 11:00 pm. This is an event where orchestra students from Jasper, Shepton, and Plano West come together for an evening to enjoy a nice dinner together followed by each school giving out awards and recapping the school year. Then the evening ends with a dance (or just enjoying spending time together).

Friday, May 12, 2023
Renaissance Dallas Richardson Hotel
900 East Lookout Drive, Richardson, TX 75082

• 6:30-7:00pm Check In at the school table
• 7:00-9:00pm Dinner & Presentations
• 9:00-11:00pm Dance
  • *Semi-formal/Formal (no jeans/shorts)

Please note that RSVP to this event is due by April 27, 2023.

Attire
Semi-formal is required. Shorts, jeans, and other casual clothing are not permitted.

Dropoff
If you are being dropped off by a parent, they should drop you at the Renaissance entrance on Plaza Drive (east side of the hotel). Pickup is at 11, and they should be on time to pick you up.

Parking
You must use the parking garage on Plaza Drive, on the east side of the Renaissance Hotel. When you pull into the parking garage, you will receive a parking ticket on cardstock. YOU MUST BRING THIS TICKET INTO THE BANQUET WITH YOU!

When you check in at the banquet, there will be a “parking validation” machine. You must stick your parking ticket into that machine to have it validated – this will allow you to leave the parking garage for free. If you forget to validate your parking ticket, you will likely be charged to leave the parking garage at the end of the night.

Do not park anywhere on the surrounding streets! Most of the parking in the area is permit-only for area apartments, and you will be towed at your expense.

It is always a memorable event and we hope that your student will be able to be part of the evening’s festivities! See you all there!

We look forward to wrapping up this wonderful year with our Spring Concert next Monday, May 15^th. Please read through the following details below.
