6th Grade Band News

The 6th grade band students are progressing well this quarter.  With a new seating chart and new folder assignments they and are just about ready to get their music for their first concert.  The concert is Tuesday, December 18 at the Middle School.

Most students are practicing regularly, but if you haven't been hearing much practice at home, please encourage them to do that or help them set a time to practice.  Many students need a little extra help from Dad and/or Mom to help them find time to practice regularly.  Regular practice is the key to their continued success.
