*Due to current COVID Restrictions, the 2021 event has been cancelled. We hope to have this event again in 2022.*

There are also a variety of Performance Groups for students to participate as part of our Arts in the Morning Program.  These are auditioned based groups and rehearse in the morning.  These groups can be seen at various evening events at Shore as well as various events in the community.  This year the Arts in the Morning groups include Drum Ensemble, Carillion Handbell Choir, Chamber Orchestra, Shore Dance Company, and Art Curators.

Students in Grades 4 and 5 also have the opportunity to audition and interview to become Arts Ambassadors.  These students are shining ARTS Stars and are featured on the Morning News and Shore YouTube videos, as well as perform safety patrol duties, conduct school tours, and more!
