This Week's Rehearsals!

The Winter Concert is FAST approaching! After school rehearsals are as follows for this week:

Tuesday December 2nd- 7th & 8th Grade  rehearsal until the 3:40 late bus

Wednesday December 3rd- 6th Grade rehearsal until the 3:40 late bus

There are only 2 rehearsal left for each band until the concert so ALL REHEARSAL ARE MANDATORY! There will be no splitting with other clubs for the next two weeks! If anyone has an issue with another club advisor, please see me so I can speak to the other teacher.

Please be sure that all students are practicing at home in the days leading up to the concert! This is more important than ever to ensure a successful concert!  

The Winter Concert will be held on Thursday December 11th at 7:00 PM. More on the report times later and dress code later!
