Committing to the calendar

CET is a commitment – please review the calendar to get an idea of all our season involves and to ensure availability. CET students are expected to attend all CET hours of all CET days.

Unexpected circumstances like heat days or added school days at the end of the school year may change some dates.

Middle & High School Performance = Incoming 6th-12th graders in the performance track

Tech = All Tech kids

Please note – All CET participants (both those in performance and tech tracks) will get a rehearsal schedule with specific, possibly additional rehearsal and show times. We get these out to you as soon as we can, pending casting and venue confirmation.


  • Middle school performance and all tech CET participants will be cast in or assigned to ONE of the following: Library Show, Travel Show, or Musical.
  • All Level 7 students (the top level) will be in the Level 7 Show.
  • Students enrolled in a Songwriters or Improv class will perform in the Songwriter Showcase & Improv Night.
  • All students will be expected to attend Fine Arts Night. Learn more about the event here.

Conflicts

Although we strongly prefer 100% attendance, our attendance policy allows limited pre-approved absences for no more than three days, and:
• must be for pre-planned family commitments
• cannot occur during the last two weeks of CET
• must be pre-approved in writing from the CET office

Please email Clara at cetsalem@gmail.com with the date and reason of absence as soon as you are aware of a conflict.
