There's a little something here for everyone...

Thursday, May 11th at 6:30 PM - Elementary/6th Grade and Grades 7/8 Concert. ( Elementary students and 6th graders report at 6:00, 7th and 8th report at 6:45 PM) There will be a bake sale during intermission so please try to donate something to the bake sale table.
Drum line & Pit Percussion: Will have 2 more evening practices before school is out. The first is on Wednesday, May 10th, and the second is on Wednesday, May 17th. Both practices begin at 7:00 PM.
Annual Marching Band Organization Meeting: is slated for Thursday, May 18th. All students expecting to participate, along with at least one parent, are required to attend. Returning members only need to remain afterward to sit with a director or booster officer "if" they have a change of information such as address , phone number, e-mail address, etc... OR are in need of new shoes, polo shirt or other supplies. Otherwise their only financial responsibility will be paying the annual dry cleaning, supply and equipment fee of $75. We'd appreciate the check at the meeting, but that is not necessary. ALL NEW MEMBERS MUST SIT WITH A DIRECTOR OR BOOSTER OFFICER TO ENTER THEIR INFORMATION INTO OUR DATABASE. This should move relatively quickly this year! New members will need to come prepared with a check in the amount of $25 for their music polo shirt. Checks are to be made payable to Centerburg High School.
6th Grade Band: Will have their final playing and chair placement test for the year during the week of May 15th. Students will be tested on major and chromatic scales and snare drum rudiments (if they are a drummer), an example from their method book and will be given an 8-12 measure piece of music to play at sight (sightread). This is worth 100 pts. and will determine the student's part and chair for the first semester of the 2017-18 school year. The assignment may be viewed on Google Classroom.
Graduation Band: Students in high school concert band are required to participate in graduation band on Sunday, May 21st. Appropriate concert attire is requested.
Memorial Day Parade: Please don't forget about the Memorial Day Parade. We'll be playing Your a Grand Old Flag / My Country Tis of Thee. We'll begin work on it right after the concert!
Marching Band Schedule: Is currently being finalized and should be posted with a couple days. Please view it right away and compare it with your calendar so schedule conflicts are eliminated.
