REMINDER – May/June Camps Cancelled
From RISD – Richardson ISD’s fine arts summer camps scheduled to take place at the end of May through the end of June have been cancelled. A decision about rescheduling these camps or holding camps that are currently scheduled for July will be based on guidance from health authorities and elected leaders. This includes private music lessons on campus as well as any camps off campus that involve RISD students and staff.
All RISD fine arts students will be cleaning out lockers and picking up marching instruments in July, at the absolute earliest. We will keep you posted with dates/times.
