This week is pretty straightforward. We still have evening rehearsal on Monday, downbeat promptly at 6:00 altogether. Please do not be late!
Everyone participating in Solo & Ensemble should be working on their music. Please feel free to come by the band hall after school to practice and ask a director for additional help if you need it - that's what we're here for!
Trip people - If you have not already, please turn in chocolate money asap and any delinquent payments. We should have new statements out to you soon. The trip will be here before you know it!
