Announcements and Updates...
#1 Marching Band Payment Notices were sent electronically last Friday afternoon, and partial payments are due by Friday, May 13th. If you did not receive a notice or had a problem opening the notice please let us know right away. We will send home a "paper copy" as well for the next payment as there are a few wrinkles in the system, not allowing everyone to view their payment forms. Please be patient as we correct these "wrinkles"! Thank you.
#2 The two (2) remaining marching percussion clinics/practices are scheduled for Monday, May 16th and Monday, May 23rd. While we'd like all the marching percussion or "the battery" to be present on the 16th, everyone (pit percussion included) are required to be at the May 23rd clinic. Start time is 7:00 PM and we end at 8:30 PM.
#3 Who marches in which parade? For Memorial Day we will include any student who participated in marching band this past season. For the June 25th July 4th/USA Days Parade everyone who is signed up for marching band this coming season will participate. This includes any current 7th graders who will be marching in 8th (minus those 8th graders in the pit) and all incoming freshmen.
#4 Don't forget next weeks Music Department Disney Trip Meeting & Music Department Awards Banquet on May 17th in the cafeteria. The trip meeting begins at 6:00 PM and is presented by Bob Rogers Travel, and the awards banquet begins directly afterward at 7:00 PM. Don't forget to bring a dessert to share!
#5 All 7th Grade Band Members have an assignment on a famous or outstanding musician. These are due either in paper or electronic form by Friday, May 20th.
#8 Eight graders will have their final playing tests next Monday, Tuesday and/or Wednesday. They will be performing individually portions of their recent band music, scales and/or drum rudiment-based etudes and sight reading. This is a 100 pt. test (same weight as a concert).
#9 School-owned instrument returns/check-outs are next week. The high school students will do theirs on Monday, May 16th during period 9 band class, and the middle school on Thursday, May 19th during their band classes. Middle schoolers who wish to sign-out an instrument for the summer must have their parents sign the form and return it to the band office!
