We’d like to thank our Band Boosters and Parent Volunteers who all helped to make the music masks for our students! These masks were distributed in class last week and are designed to allow our wind players to play their instruments while still wearing protective masks. Please help me in recognizing: Julie-Ann Johnson, Yvonne, Rowtie, Dana Rowtie, Anthony Rowtie, Kristian Newton, Claudia Sumalla, and Eileen Fuentes for all of their hard work and help! These parents handmade over 200 masks in less than two weeks! We are so thankful to have so many dedicated and hardworking parents who care for our students! These music masks are to be worn by woodwind and brass students during class, in after school rehearsals, and during performances. Additional music masks will be available for purchase later this week. 

​Last week Friday, it was announced that the District has approved that all band students are permitted to perform at all scheduled home games, full marching band rehearsals may resume, and all participating students (band, cheer, and football) will have the opportunity to purchase two home game tickets for spectators. We're very excited that all of our students have the opportunity to perform at the games to support our team and school!

This week, we will only rehearse in small sections with groups of 50 at a time. Next week we will begin our full band rehearsals. Please check the band calendar for all scheduled events.

Students who are missing a band/auxiliary/jazz band class on their schedule: The counselors have posted a link on the Guidance Dept. Canvas, which allows students to request a schedule change. Please submit your requests though the provided link on Canvas. Mrs. Robinson will be sending a list of requests as well. If any part of the process confuses you, please email Mrs. Robinson and she will help you.   

Information for all Virtual Band and Auxiliary Students: All virtual students (synchronous and asynchronous) should be logging in to their band/auxiliary/jazz band class every day via WebEx. Asynchronous students who are not able to log in to class on a daily basis will have to turn in a video of their playing/dancing/spinning to earn their daily participation grade. Please email Mrs. Robinson if you have any questions.   

Band Instrument Distribution (Tues. 9/8 and Thurs. 9/10): Students who are attending school on campus received their instruments last week. Instrument Distribution for all virtual band students is scheduled for Tuesday, September 8th from 5:00-6:30pm and Thursday, September 10th from 5:00-5:30pm. 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. Virtual band students will receive a concert band instrument that will be taken home and a marching band instrument, which will remain at the school. Students who do not pick-up their instruments before practice will not have an instrument during practice. Mrs. Robinson will not have time to distribute instruments during practices.
