The band calendar has been updated with the dates for our Christmas Concerts.
5th Grade and HS concert will be Thursday, December 13th at 6:30pm in the HS Cafeteria.
6th-8th Grade will be Friday, December 14th at 6:30pm in the HS Cafeteria.
All performances are required performances. If your child will not be able to perform with the band, a band director needs to be notified in writing (as stated in the handbook) before Friday, December 7th. Thank you!
Mrs. Conard and Mr. V are available for after-school practice most days of the week from 3:30-4:30pm. 6th Grade students that want to audition for the All-Region Band MUST plan to stay after school to work on the music. Students that are new to band should also make arrangements to stay after school to get caught up with the rest of the class.
If you have any questions about after-school practice, email Mrs. Conard. There is no charge for lessons at the school.
The UIL Music Memory Page has been updated for this year's selections. There is some really good music on the list! The Music Memory event takes place in January. It is open to 6th-8th grade students. We need 5 students in each grade level to make three teams. Students may jump up to a higher grade level, but students cannot go down a grade level. For instance, the 8th grade team can be 7th and 8th grade students. The 7th grade team can be 6th and 7th grade students. The 6th grade team can only be 6th grade students. There will be several practices during lunch, tutorials, and after school from October - January. Please let Mrs. Conard know if you are interested in participating.
6th - 8th Grade Band Students need to return the Band Handbook Form and T-Shirt/Book Order Form by THIS Friday! The t-shirt is a required band purchase and part of our band "uniform." Please contact Mrs. Conard with any concerns.
