Tomorrow is the first day of school! We are looking forward to seeing our students whether they are online or in person. We could be wrong, but we predict that tomorrow will prove to be a little challenging at times. The school will look different, the band room will look different, and due to the constant changes, some students may have issues with their schedules, and there may be some technical difficulties when trying to access Canvas, Focus, WebEx, etc. We want to encourage all of the students to just expect that things will be different and at times strange this year, but we encourage all of you to hang on, persevere, and be reminded that eventually, we will get back on track to what used to be normal!

Students who are missing a band/auxiliary/jazz band class on their schedule: At this time, PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT YOUR COUNSELOR if you have an issue with your schedule. If you are missing a band related course, please notify Mrs. Robinson and she will go through the proper channels to request the change. The counselors will not address any schedule changes until mid-week at the earliest. Priority will be given to students who do not have schedules and students who have been mistakenly given two classes in one period.  


Information for all Virtual Band and Auxiliary Students:  Unfortunately, all virtual band and auxiliary students are not permitted on campus during the school day. Whether you’ve chosen Option 2 of Option 3 as your learning platform, you will not be permitted into the building to attend band, auxiliary, or any other elective course. This was a decision made by our School Administration. We apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment as we know that this decision will affect some of you. If this policy changes in the future, we will be sure to let you know.


Entering and Exiting the Band Room: Please follow the signs as there will be certain doors marked as the “Entrance Door” and certain doors designated as the “Exit door.” This will be to help with the flow of traffic. Hand sanitizer stations have been placed at every band entrance and exit door for the students’ convenience.


Logging in to Virtual Band/Auxiliary Classes: When the Band and Auxiliary Canvas Pages are ready, there will be a direct link to Mrs. Robinson’s Virtual Classroom. 


Band Instrument/Auxiliary Equipment Storage and Band Lockers: Band students, please do NOT bring your instruments to school tomorrow, unless it is a school owned instrument. Auxiliary students, please do NOT bring your equipment to school tomorrow. Mrs. Robinson is going to go over instrument and equipment storage in class so that students understand the new process. At least as of right now, students will not be issued a band locker for their instruments. Instead, students will be issued a storage space. Details will be explained tomorrow during class.


School Owned Instruments: Students who have school owned instruments are asked to bring these to school tomorrow. There is a new barcode system and Mrs. Robinson needs to finish updating all of the school instruments.


Band Instrument Rental and Distribution: Students who are attending school on campus will receive their instruments as early as Tuesday this week. Instrument Distribution for all virtual band students is scheduled for Tuesday, September 8th. The time is TBD. Please remember that we can only provide the following instruments: piccolo, oboe, bassoon, tenor sax, bari sax, bass clarinet, French horn/mellophone, euphonium/baritone, and tuba/sousaphone. 


Auxiliary Equipment Rental and Distribution: Students who are attending school on campus will receive their flags and rifles during class on Tuesday this week. All virtual auxiliary students will receive their equipment after this week’s sectional.


Physical Exams & Required Forms: There is an updated Covid-19 form posted on Athletic Clearance. If you completed your forms prior to 8/21/2020, you will have to go back and redo the form. We apologize for the inconvenience. The following forms are required by all students in order to participate in band. Students will not be allowed to participate without submitting the following on AthleticClearance.com. These forms are required before students can attend any after school practice or performance.
  • Proof of Medical Insurance
  • Physical Form
  • Consent and Release from Liability Certificate
  • Assumption of Risk and Liability to Coronavirus/COVID-19 Form
These forms are available through the provided links on the band website. They are also available on when you log into AthleticClearance.com.  


Auxiliary Sectional (Tues. 9/1): All auxiliary students will have their first after school practice from 6:00-7:30pm. Please wear the proper practice attire and shoes and please be sure to bring water and a small towel. All forms must be up to date on AthleticClearance.com. If you have any issues or concerns, please contact Mrs. Robinson at robina2@collieschool.com.


Percussion Sectional (Wed. 9/2): All percussion students will have their first after school practice from 6:00-7:30pm. Please wear the proper practice attire and shoes and please be sure to bring water and a small towel. All forms must be up to date on AthleticClearance.com. If you have any issues or concerns, please contact Mrs. Robinson at robina2@collieschool.com.


When is the first marching band rehearsal? Mrs. Robinson is hoping to start after school rehearsals for wind players by next week. She is still waiting to hear on some important information before moving forward. As of right now, we are only rehearsing and performing with 50 students at a time. Thank you for your patience.​
