Instrument/Music Pick Up - Thursday April 2nd, 10:00-11:00am

3/30/2020

Students are not permitted to enter the school, so Mr. Michanowicz and Mr. Denaro will be bringing the instruments out to the front bus loop.

We can only offer this one opportunity, so please take advantage if you are in need of something!

Online Band Assignments - utilizing Flipgrid

3/19/2020

All band, jazz, and guard classes will be utilizing Flipgrid to record and submit online video assignments. Each class will have 2-3 assignments each week, so check frequently. Students are expected to practice at least 30 minutes a day, which is the equivalent of a daily 50 min ensemble rehearsal - the flipgrid assignments should hopefully help guide you on what to practice. We will be sending out additional suggestions for practice next week.

NEW TO FLIPGRID? Click HERE to get started!

Focus on completing your Flipgrid assignments to the best of your ability. If you do not have your instrument, we hope to open the band room as soon as we are permitted. Due dates will be flexible for those without an instrument at the moment.

Each assignment will have a video explanation to guide you on how to properly complete the assignment. Make sure to upload your best performance AFTER you have practiced the assignment. Students who do not complete the assignment at a high level will be asked to redo the assignment.

If you have a question about any particular assignment, please email your ensemble director.
