Band Rehearsal Schedule (Feb.16-18)

Posted on by

Due to repairs that had to made to the basketball nets in the gym this morning, grade 9 rehearsals were moved to the band room and I ran two 25 minute sectionals instead of a full band practice.

Because of this change, we will have a full grade 9 early morning band practice in the gym next Thursday, February 18th. The grade 9 brass sectional scheduled for Friday, February 19th is cancelled.

Thank you, and have a safe and fun long weekend!

Band Uniforms

Posted on by

Band uniforms were passed out to all students before Christmas, but we were missing a few sizes. Orders are being placed on Monday for white band shirts and vests for those who need them. Please click on the link below and complete the Google Form if your child needs to order a new white shirt and/or vest or if they need a different size. The cost of uniforms is covered by the annual $25 band fee. Thank you
