Hello all,
7 DAYS AND COUNTING TILL THE 2019-20 SCHOOL YEAR BEGINS!! Get ready, we are just one week away from the first day of school. Time to get out and do that last minute tax-free shopping this week and rest up :-)
We will start back on our normal weekly schedule for marching season this week. Attendance at all rehearsals and performances is REQUIRED as stated in the handbook found HERE. Remember, if there is a legitimate reason to miss a rehearsal or performance, the student is responsible for informing Mr. Weaver or Mr. Schultz BEFORE the absence and must submit an absence form to Mr. Schultz the day the student returns. This is only for after school rehearsals NOT in school attendance. In school attendance must be taken up with the front office. As well, if students are absent, they must make up for missing by submitting a recording or video of them practicing to the band directors. We will be talking about this aspect in detail on Monday.
Make sure you are aware that the Monday rehearsals will change to 4pm-7pm on August 19th until the first week of October. After that week in October, we will no longer have Monday rehearsals for marching band.
Please note that the MHS open house is this Thursday from 5:30-7pm. We have adjusted the rehearsal time so everyone can attend. We will begin rehearsal at 7pm and end at 9:30.
Students, we have new drill for this week! Please open your UDBapp and download the drill for Zombie. We will also most likely be learning pregame on Thursday using paper coordinate sheets.
The BPA (and our students) need your help this Saturday at the city of Milton Waterfest event in downtown Milton. They will have the concessions trailer out in force in need you to help run it. Please find the yellow helping hand icon on the event on the calendar and sign up. All help is welcome!
Finally, the Remind texting service has changed some of the policies and we are going to have to change some things with this as well. Just fyi, we can no longer have more than 150 people per class and no more than 10 classes. We are going to be pulling everyone out of the marching band texting group and splitting that group into 4 different sub groups representing each graduating glass. i.e. 2020, 2021...You will need to sign up for your particular class. We will send the same information to all class members of the marching band. The new classes are below. Please sign up ASAP!:
Text the same number to each class: 81010 or (850)637-8697
