Music Graduation Recognition
Students must take at least 4 music classes during high school to be eligible. Those 4 classes can be repeats of the same class (for example, 4 years of Concert Band) or they can be a combination of 4 different music classes (for example: 2 years of Choir, 1 year of Guitar, 1 year of Orchestra).You must also be enrolled in a music class during your senior year to be eligible.Music classes taken at other high schools (besides Vista) DO count toward earning this cord. You need to be graduating from Vista to be eligible (we will not send cords to other schools if you move).Contact Ms. Masztal or Mr. Martini if you aren't sure if you meet this criteria.Music Pathway Cords are light pink, which is the same color that university music majors wear for their graduation cap tassels. This cord celebrates your commitment to music and the hard work you put into our music program at Vista del Lago High School -
