C-Heights Band Newsletter
January 5, 2021
Happy New Year!
We hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable winter break. We are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead for your students. Below you will find some reminders about upcoming events as well as some new opportunities! Here's to a great start to 2021!
Course Scheduling 2021 - 2022
Additionally, if future 9th & 10th graders want help in how band can fit into a student's schedule, please see this 4-Year Planning Guide for Music. This can be especially helpful if students are wondering how to stay in 2 music classes or Music & AVID throughout high school.
We created a brief video highlighting the Cardinal Heights ensembles and what students have to say about band.
At Cardinal Heights, we welcome all students to participate in band! Please feel free to share the above information with anyone who may be interested in band - even if they have never participated before!
Former & New Band Students Welcome!
Do you know anyone that discontinued band this year because of the pandemic and virtual learning? Please know we welcome students back to band (or to even start if they haven't been in band before). Feel free to forward this invitation to anyone who might be interested. Please reach out to any band directors with questions!
Band Booster Updates - Yard Signs coming to you!
General Booster Meeting
Sunday, Feb 21st, 5:30PM
On the agenda: 2022 6-7-8 class schedule, SOSP update, hybrid band, fundraising/financials.
Yard Signs Coming To Your Lawn Soon!
Like you, we are so proud of our children and the band program in Sun Prairie. Even in the midst of a global pandemic, our children continue to collaborate, create, and perform.
We understand the value band has on our children's education and their development. We wanted to help celebrate and share our pride with the wider community by placing a yard sign at the home of every band family. With your permission, a yard sign will be placed in your yard January 7th -15th. If you would prefer to opt-out and not have a yard sign placed in your yard, please fill out this form by January 5th: https://forms.gle/11epSGeuz6y8f2Lg6
We hope this sign brings a sense of pride to your child and family. We look forward to the day we get to hear our kids making beautiful music together again!
Feed The Beat
It's important that we do our part to give our support to our local restaurants during this challenging time. Each month we will pick one local restaurant to support for 1 week. Boosters will not be asking for any profit from restaurants.
Stay in touch through our website and Facebook page for details.
