Band Students of the WeekCongrats to our Students of the Week from last week: Aaron P. - Beginner Band Jacob H. - Symphonic Band Zachary K. - Honors Band Carly H. - Wind Symphony | Prize Patrol We hope our students have been enjoying the goody bags when they win Student of the Week. Make sure to use that hand sanitizer that comes in every winner's bag! :) Stay safe and healthy! | Thankful November We are so thankful for parental support! We know that our students would not be as successful as they are without your love and support and our program wouldn't be the same. Thank you for the financial sacrifices, time, and encouragement you give your students. Please know how much we value you and appreciate you!!! |

Helpful Info/Reminders
Charms Resolution
Log in to Charms using the school code hudsonsoundmachine and your student's password. Passwords for brand new students should be the student ID with 6 digits only. If you cannot get logged on, please contact Mrs. Becker. She has discovered a new way to reset passwords!
You can click the "finances" button and pay fall band fees using Paypal. If you have logged in and are paying band fees, but your student has a credit on their account, the easiest thing to do is to make a miscellaneous payment. You can specify what the payment is for since it will be for the remaining balance and not the entire Fall fee. Then you can "request a transfer" of that payment to go to the fall fees.
School-owned instrument fees will still be paid in Skyward this year. We are having a little trouble getting that set up correctly since this is a change from previous years. We made some headway last week and hope to be completely set up by the end of this week. Stay tuned for more info!
Fall Concert Success!
