MOST IMPORTANT - I trust that everyone is safe and on the road to recovery from Hurricane Sally. If you are unable to attend a rehearsal or performance this week due to a hurricane related concern at home, please email or notify a director as soon as possible. Communication is important, so please do not just assume we already know your situation.
Take care of yourselves, be kind to each other, and let's get back on track once again.

Tuesday/Thursday - Our evening rehearsal schedule will be "normal" for this week. Please check the CHARMS calendar for details.

Florida All-State Band Auditions
ALL students auditioning for an All-State Ensemble will need to see a director ASAP to receive a sheet on how to complete their "virtual audition".

Symphonic Band (11-12th) - (September 25-26th)
Concert Band (9-10th) - (September 27-28th)

Percussion and some jazz rhythm section students will need to schedule a time when they can complete their audition in the band room. See a director to do this.
Band "Fair Share" Payments
If you have not recently made a band fee payment, please do so this week. If you are not participating in the marching band this fall, a credit will be applied to your account within the next couple of days. You are not responsible for covering expenses that are marching band related.
Private Lessons
If you have not yet signed up for a Private Lesson, please find time to do this. All students will need to complete two private lessons with a director each nine week grading period. We have before and after school time slots available throughout the week.
