What we are doing the week of May 13 - 17, 2019
*We always appreciate donated tissues and hand sanitizer. The students go through them quickly!
*Hopefully you all have received information a couple of
weeks ago sent home with your student about our upcoming “Instrument Petting
Zoo.” This is an opportunity for your student to come to the middle
school and try out all the instruments we offer in 6th grade
beginning band! The open house style event is THIS WEDNESDAY, May
15 from 6-7:30 in the HS Commons. Please bring your student and stop by
whenever it is convenient for you. The entire process can take 20-30
minutes depending on how many instruments they try and how long they stay to
play J You will also be
receiving some info about instrument rentals and what students need BEFORE the
start of next school year.
If you are unable to attend the event due to scheduling
conflicts, please let me know. You can always stop by Willis or Wert
Music stores and they can assist you in trying out instruments there as well
any time.
Again, Wednesday evening is a great opportunity for you to
ask questions and your student to see what instrument they want to play in our
6th grade beginning band! I’m super excited to get started on
this new path….You’re kiddos have been awesome this year, learning to read
music, and rehearse together with lots of other instruments.
This event is open to ALL current 5th grade students who want to
join band next year, so bring a friend along for the fun! See you all
Wednesday!
