Performing Arts Endorsement Requirements 1. Receive a passing grade on all prescribed Performing Arts Endorsement academic and performance classes as required (see GHS website for list of required courses). Juniors will perform a Spring "jury" or graded recital performance for a panel of judges consisting of approved solo material and/or etudes. Theatre students perform a monologue. Senior candidates will perform in a Senior Recital before graduation. This performance will be critiqued by both GHS faculty and professionals in the Fine Arts field. 2. Attendance is required for a minimum of three off campus professional performances each year. A printed program from the event must be submitted within one week of the performance date. A variety of performances, both musical and dramatic, is encouraged. 3. Every candidate should be available for departmental performances above the minimum participation expected for membership in the various organizations. This could take the form of musicals, combined concerts, community performances, etc. 4. Instrumental, vocal, and piano students must complete 7 of the 8 All Region and Solo and Ensemble requirements. All Region occurs every fall and Solo/Ensemble every spring. (Piano candidates do not have All Region, therefore additional and equivalent requirements will be given to the individual piano candidates). 5. Instrumental and vocal candidates must participate in the TMEA All Region audition process throughout their four years in the program and participate in organizations for which they may be selected. 6. Theatre candidates must participate in 11 of the 12 productions required throughout the four years of high school. An individual senior project will be required. 7. Film students must meet participation requirements for the classes in which they are enrolled and participate in AFI/Dallas Film Festival, and the Reel Owl Cinema Film Festival all four years. Seniors will create a 7 minute film for adjudication. We understand the requirements that must be met to complete the Performing Arts Endorsement. We also understand that failure to meet the requirements will result in removal from the program. Students will not be eligible for magnet transportation to Garland High School if removed from the magnet program. Parent Signature: Date: Student Signature: Date:
