First Week of School

1st Week of School – 8/19/19-8/24/19

Welcome back to school!  This will be an exciting week with it being the start of a new school year. Check that you have all materials with you for rehearsal.  Nothing changes because of the start of school.  Materials are:  Band water jug (bring it to school filled), white t-shirt (no other color), athletic shorts and shoes, towel/yoga mat, hat, sunglasses, sunblock, all music and drill in a charged phone, instrument/equipment.  Plan to have outdoor and/or indoor rehearsals.  Please see the Google Calendar for details on events.

For new parents, the band hall will open by 7:45am.  Students can bring rehearsal materials then and put them in their locker or the designated drop off area in Band Hall 1.  It is open for practice and lessons in the mornings and during lunch.  Any items that were ordered, such as, shoes, travel t, etc. will be given out soon if they have not picked them up yet.  Please be patient as parents are working hard to get those items to you.

A goal from our program has for this year, it to have better participation in fundraisers which directly help with your obligations/fees.  The more we fundraise the more scholarships we can provide, the better equipment we can get, the more travel we can do, the more opportunities we have for our students!
