Honor Band-Demic
Week 8: March 4 - 8, 2020
Band Audition/Exam Performance due this week!
Your assignment this week is:
- All 7th Graders should prepare the End of Year Audition Music and submit to the "Staley Band Placement Exam Recording" In Canvas
- 8th Graders should prepare their High school audition music or the Staley Exam music if you are not continuing in band.
Everyone should prepare the music and submit a video as this is also your exam grade for band.
Only those who are continuing in band will know their band placement.
Student Check Out Form- Please take time to fill out the form below. It will help guide us as a band staff regarding instrument check-in and closing out the year information. If you have any questions please let me know. We are asking that every student/family in the program fill out this form by Wednesday 5/13 as it impacts our district mandated instrument collection day on Monday 5/18. Thank you.
7th Grade Audition Music
To facilitate this we are going to have two afternoon and two late morning help sessions (all optional) that is open to all 6th and 7th grade students. This will help us meet the deadline of May 11th as per Mrs. Robinson's instructions to us.
