Sixth Grade Band Bulletin
Mid-October Edition
Quick Announcements
Do you have Cubs Fever? This is a big deal at the Buckley house. I've been a Die-Hard Cubs Fan since 1980. I think this is going to be the year! This will be really short! Just a few bits of information for you.
As always, please contact me with questions/concerns.
Sincerely
Rob Buckley
First GLE Unit Due
Wednesday marks the last help session (after school). It's only for students not done with the GLE. It ends at 4:00pm.
Field Trip Permission On Hold
HUGE KUDOS!
Talley Miller recently performed in Seussical Jr. at the BFAC
Joe Caltigerone who rocked out at his Guitar Recital
Kelsie Hoffmann and Natalie Hayden who made it into the prestigious RMS Symphonic Band as sixth graders!
If your child is involved in music outside of RMS, please let me know! I always want to celebrate the students' success!
Jazz Band/Jazz Ensemble
Jazz Band students who signed up for Jazz Band will be getting emails confirming their participation this week/weekend. The first rehearsal is Tuesday, October 20--7:00am (be there by 6:55am--to be early is to be on time...to be on time is to be late).
Students who try out for Jazz Ensemble but for whatever reason do not make it are STRONGLY encouraged to play in the Jazz Band. A lot of times, it is an experience issue. Students who make JE have more experience. Jazz Band is the perfect place to get that experience!
Odds and Ends
Scale Quiz will be due on October 27. I want all students to take quiz via chromebook using Screencastify. Students not having internet at home can do them at school.
GET AHEAD HELP SESSION THIS WEEK--CANCELLED DUE TO JAZZ AUDITIONS
NEXT GET AHEAD SESSION WILL BE OCTOBER 22 AFTER SCHOOL
