Greetings

Hello Parents & Students

I hope that you are all staying in (Sheltering in Place) and have hunkered down with your friend (your instrument!)

Practicing a few minutes a day can help relieve the stress & boredom of this situation, and help you achieve a higher sense of expression in sound.

A few things:

New Staff

Sadly, Mr. Miner — our Trumpet Teacher will be moving and is unable to return for the Fall of 2020. We thank him and wish him well. The good news? I mean — the GREAT news? We have acquired Tim Paproski (Bulldog Marching Band Alumni and former UConn Drum Major and Music Ed Major) has agreed to join us, starting this summer.

Fall 2020 Show

You can get your parts for the Fall 2020 Show here, including the Full audio. Please note — these parts will MOST likely change slightly — so please don’t commit to memory just yet. Percussion — your parts will update later tonight — after 6p.

Schoology

Please complete your assignments on Schoology. There will be 4 or 5 per week, and they MUST be completed!

Please let me know if you are having any issues at all.

November Band Trip to Hollywood

Right now — we are on hold. We have not cancelled as of today, as it’s pretty far in the future. For now, Please continue to participate in whatever fund raisers you can do…
