We've just started the first week of school and we look forward to helping the band members get into a solid routine. Here is your Monday Night Rundown for the week of August 9: 

 

After School Rehearsals (ASR's) This Week - 8/10 & 8/12
We start our ASR's this week. ASR's are an integral part to the success of the band. Remember ASR's are graded and members are expected to show up on time and prepared with their instruments and materials. A few reminders for success

• ASR's start at 4:15 PM and end at 6:30 PM. Band members should remain on campus as there will be no time to leave and return to campus. Band members should bring a light snack.
  
  
• Band members need to bring their water coolers to school. They can be stored in their lockers or in the band room. Students should fill their coolers with ice from home and then fill them with water before the ASR.
  
  
• It will be hot and band members have trained during band camp on how to handle the heat. Band members should bring clothes to change into (band camp attire is acceptable) along with tennis shoes.
  
  
• In the event that a band member is absent, parents should notify the band office by email at [email protected] as soon as possible. No-call/No-shows are not acceptable. Please consult the band handbook for more information on what constitutes an excused and unexcused absence.

Parents - Do you want to lower your out-of-pocket expenses for band class fees? Please consider participating in any or all of our three ongoing fundraisers. We have a Smart Card Sale, Contest Sponsorship, and Shop with Scrip. These fundraisers are designed to help families offset their out-of-pocket costs. While our SmartCard and Contest Sponsorship fundraisers are for a limited time, our Shop with Scrip is continuous. More information about these fundraisers were in your band registration packet, which can also be accessed at the Parent Portal of the SCHS Band website.
