Permission Slips for ASO, CEP, & Lift Every Voice Field Trips

ASO:
All Students at SPARK attend an Atlanta Symphony Orchestra concert each year. These concerts have different repertoire each year, and give the students a chance to become familiar with all of the instruments of the orchestra, concert etiquette, music history, and other Music standards. The 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders will complete their Second Quarter ASO Composer's Project based on the composers whose music they will hear.

CEP:
Cultural Exprience Project The Cultural Experience Project was launched during the 2005-2006 school year to afford every Atlanta Public School (APS) student from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade the opportunity to experience the city’s premier art and cultural venues. This Project funds the admission and transportation for these trips!

Lift Every Voice
The event is the “Lift Every Voice and Sing” program collaboration with APS, Emory, and the Atlanta Music Festival (www.atlantamusicfestival.org). "Lift Every Voice and Sing" was composed by James Weldon Johnson and John Rosamond Johnson in honor of Abraham Lincoln's 100th birthday. The student performance of the song is a recreation of the historic way the first performance was presented with 500 school children. The program is scheduled for Wednesday, November 16, 2016 at Ebenezer Baptist Church on Auburn Avenue from 10 am to noon
