Second Beginner Band Rehearsal
All students will bring their backpacks and belongings to the band hall when their class comes down for lunch. They will then go get their lunch from the cafeteria (unless they brought a sack lunch) and will come back to the band hall to eat. After everyone has finished eating, we will start our rehearsal.
We will begin the rehearsal at 1:30pm and end at 2:45pm. Virtual students should be dropped off at the BACK of the school and enter directly through the exterior band hall door (#11). Parents may pick students up after the rehearsal is over. You must TEXT your student that you have arrived (AT THE BACK OF THE SCHOOL, NEAR THE BAND HALL). The student will show us the text, and then we will release them to you to go home.
