I hope you have had a fantastic summer, and you are almost ready to come back to school!
I am almost ready...maybe after the eclipse.
Below are some things you might like to know before school starts. I will be sure to share this information in class as well.
1. Getting your instrument.
- If you are in 7th-8th grade band, we will be playing on the 2nd day of school, so bring your instrument! I will also be checking out school horns on that day, if you need to rent one for the year.
- If you are a 6th grader or parent, please read this important advice about your musical instrument HERE. First day with instruments will be Monday, September 11.
- We will be hosting a rental night, with instruments provided by Beacock Music on Thursday, September 7, starting at 6:30PM in the SHS Commons.
2. Concert dates.
- Concert dates for the 2017-18 school year can be found HERE. Make sure you mark these dates into your family calendar right away.
3. Concert Uniform.
- We are changing things up this year, to hopefully look sharper, be less hassle, and be more affordable.
- 7th-8th grade band: All black, long sleeves, dress pants, or long skirts, or skirts with leggings or tights, black socks/shoes. For more information click HERE.
- 6th grade band: A t-shirt that will be fun and funky, not to exceed $10 in cost. Order forms will be available during class. Your choice for bottoms, must meet school dress code.
See you soon!!
Musically,
McG
