Homecoming Week and Quarter Projects

Homecoming week is here. I am always curious to see how students will participate for the dress up days. There are always some very creative ideas! While it's supposed to be a fun week, there are still things that need to happen educationally. For example, the 7-8 band performs in the parade on Friday. With only 2 more practices left, we have some work to do. The group is improving--they sounded great on Friday and their marching is much improved!

Along those lines, there is just over 1 month left in the quarter. Band students (6-8) need to be working on some quarter projects, or extra items. There was a list of suggestions in the band handbook that went home at the beginning of the year. Some students have been proactive in their communication with me about them and some have not. PLEASE encourage your student to get working on these so it is not a last minute panic situation! It's better for everyone involved.
