AND.....WE.....ARE....BACK!!!!! Welcome to the 2019-20 school year everyone! Hold on tight. This ride is going to go fast!
There are only a couple things I would like to bring to your attention this week. First of all, if you did not sign up for the new marching band remind classes, please CLICK HERE and follow the directions on the appropriate graduating class description. We will be deleting the other big marching band group. You will probably receive a notification that you were removed from that group. Do not worry. You will still remain in the other marching band group as long as you signed up for it.
Please look at the rehearsal schedule closely. Take special note that we will begin Monday AFTERNOON rehearsals next Monday 4pm-7pm. This is Monday, August 19. We will have Monday rehearsals until the week after the Blackwater Classic.
I have attached a copy of the attendance policy for the Milton High School Band. Please make sure you look it over and understand the requirements. All rehearsals and performances are required. To keep things simple for you, just show up. Easy as that.
I have gone ahead and put the itinerary for every football game on each football event on the calendar for your planning purposes. These may be subject to change.
Finally, I want to wish everyone the best of luck as we begin the new school year. Just like at the beginning of the summer when we started with a "clean slate," the same applies for the first day of school. You have the chance to start fresh from scratch. I challenge you to seize this opportunity. Make goals for yourself for this new year and hold yourself accountable for reaching those goals. Don't be afraid to go down that path. You never know, what that road has in store fore you. Hopefully when you look back on these decisions you make, you will realize that this is "When the Heart Ignites the Soul". ;-)
Have an outstanding first day and week!
