This fun, free, family-oriented concert takes place at 7 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 27, in the high school’s South Commons.

The symphonic, concertino, and concert orchestras will play songs from “Beauty and the Beast,” “Ghostbusters,” “Wizard of Oz,” “Phantom of the Opera,” “Ratatouille,” and “The Little Mermaid.”
