End of the Year Update and plans for High School Band 20-21

End of the Year Updates and What We Know Right Now

This post is for all enrolled incoming freshmen and all enrolled high school band members for 20-21 and their parents.  Please take the time to read this email carefully.

I would like to begin by saying how much we miss all our students and being able to make music together.  We miss
our Band Family!  It has been difficult to be in the position of waiting and we want to communicate with you what we know right now.   We have been maintaining contact with our administration and are developing several different plans for what the start of our year could look like.

We are still holding our original date of Aug 3-7 for Band Camp
.  We are looking into procedures to make sure we have a safe camp and follow the guidelines from the State.  

Here is what we need right now.  

Parents – please fill out the following Band Commitment form for the 2020-21 school year.  It will only take a couple of minutes!  You will see more instructions and dates on the form but we need this document for planning purposes.  We do get a roster from the school however the counselors work on Infinite Campus as a “work in progress” and can be prone to errors.  We use our form to plan and we don’t want to leave anyone out!  Here is a link to the form:
