Band Notes ⚓️
September 29, 2019
What a busy few weeks!
We have had: Band Camp, Snap Raise, Gold Card, Blitz Day, 4 Home Games, 1 Away Game, AND our 6th Annual Parade of Bands! Whew! That's exhausting! A BIG THANK YOU to all who volunteered their time on all of these events! Boy, it's been busy but it's been pretty fun too! However, now that we are in midseason we have forgotten our 4 basic expectations. These expectations are to always be present in your mind on a daily basis.
Expectations for Band
- Show Respect
- Be Prepared
- Be On Time
- Be Your Best
Daily, it is encouraged for you to see if you are living up to these.

Practicing at home- Google Classroom
Along with practicing their music, they should with practice with a metronome and tuner. The app Tonal Energy Tuner is great for both! If you can't get this, a metronome will be perfect!
Occasionally there will be playing assignments due in Google Classroom. It is HIGHLY encouraged that students prepare in a timely manner and try to submit their performance BEFORE it is due. Just in case there are any technological difficulties. Please plan ahead!
Stay informed
Time to clean your instrument!
