Dear Parent(s)/Guardian of All-County Music Festival Accepted Students: 

I want to congratulate you on your child’s invitation to the Nassau Music Educators Association (NMEA) 2025 All-County Music Festival. This is an honor and a testament to your child’s hard work and dedication. Your child will be practicing and performing with other student musicians from all over Nassau County. I am sure this will be a musically rewarding experience. 

Due to a regional shortage of bus drivers, PARENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM ALL REHEARSALS AND PERFORMANCES. The Fine and Performing Arts Office will share contact information for families that express an interest in carpooling. Please note: Chaperones will still supervise your children at the festival site and will be available to assist them during rehearsals. 

Students must attend all rehearsals for the full duration of each rehearsal. Students cannot arrive late or leave early, as there is limited time to prepare for their performance.

All-County information and forms are available online (see the links above)

The deadline to complete and return the All-County Permission Forms and Intent Letters is Friday, November 18, 2024. If you need assistance, please call the Fine & Performing Arts Office at 516-308-5085.
