Band Parents,
There's lot happening and Mr. McLerran has some important updates for you. Please see below:
Chocolate sales begin this week. Your child is responsible for both inventory and money collected. Money should be turned in inside a sealed envelope with your child's name and the total written on the outside. No coins please- the envelope breaks and we can't reconcile your sales with all the loose change in the drop-box. Students can get additional boxes as they sell out of inventory and settle up.
There is a music pass off due this Friday for Honors and Symphonic bands.
Some students still owe forms and final payment for the trip on the 19th. Both are due this Friday, the 7th.
Here is the before/after school sectional schedule for the week of March 2-6. Sectionals are mandatory and for a grade. If students cannot make it to theirs they are responsible for letting Mr. McLerran know, and to plan to join another sectional for their band.
