I would like to congratulate our indoor percussion and winterguard for 2 outstanding first performances this weeked at Tate HS. Both groups are off to a great start for the competiton season! Please come out and supprt all these awesome students at Choctaw HS this Saturday!
Mr. Weaver sent the following email out earlier this week about the band trip. Please read:
Good evening! We have a few extra spots on our 2020 Band Trip to Washington DC and New York City that we'd like to fill if any of our band students or parents are interested in attending. The cost is $1,581 (quad occupancy), $1,730 (triple occupancy), $2,2025 (double occupancy), and $2,919 (single occupancy). Of course, the full amount will need to be paid in the next few weeks prior to the trip. If you'd like more information, please visit our band website at http://www.miltonhighschoolband.com/dcnew-york-trip-info.html . This trip is being run by Group Travel Network in Orlando...so if you're interested, we'll need to get you in touch with them. I know that this time of year is when some of us get our tax returns, so perhaps you'd be interested in attending or sending your child. If you have questions OR if you're interested in attending, please contact me ASAP. Thanks!
Gray Weaver
Finally, please be aware of the STATE MANDATED mental health classes that all students are required to go through over the next 8 days. Again, this is a directive from the STATE not local authorities. Beginning tomorrow, for all odd days, this class will be first thing in the mornings. For all even days, this class will at the end of the school day, 2:24-3:24. Students will still go to all classes on a modified schedule.
That is all for now. I hope you have a fantastic week!
