Thank you to everyone who has donated batteries, we have enough! If you have not donated a case of water yet please do so in the next week or so, we are getting into our performance season and we will go through a lot of water from now to November. Our travel to San Antonio has been decided, we will travel Wednesday, April 3 though Sunday, April 7th. Please send it the forms for travel, travel forms were handed out at the parent meeting Aug. 20th.

This week the students should sell a minimum of 4 car wash tickets and turn in $20 for the sales. This fundraiser is the last effort to help pay for the marching band show this fall. Money collected will pay for entrance fee’s, props, and chords needed for the sound system. Each student is asked to sign up for one shift to wash car’s on Saturday, either 8:30am – 11:30am or 11:30am-2:30pm. We will also need parent help on this day, if you are available to help supervise the students for one shift of the other please email me back.

Curriculum –
Students received an objective sheet last week with performing objectives and tasks to complete in two weeks of time. Please ask your child to play for you and assist your child as needed. Students will be given time during MPH to come in and complete objectives as well as some class time. Checking off an objective at school can take as little as 30 seconds to play through but preparing the music to performance level requires practicing at home. This first round of objective sheets are due this Friday, Sept. 7th by 3;30pm

Please make sure your child has a flip folder and lyre for their band instrument, percussion need a black binder, students need their supplies to have an equal chance for success. Guard please pay for your shoes $35 and pay for your uniform $40 to the front office. Any parents that responded to purchase the show shirts please pay for the shirt in the front office this week, you can send this with your child, you do not personally need to come in to make that payment.
