Hi, hey, hello!
We have a Fine Arts Booster Meeting on Tuesday at 6pm in the CM Commons. If you are available, we would love to have you! The Boosters are holding a Disco Bingo night to raise money for our students on Friday, November 10th. They could always use more help! We have a few more weeks left of marching band, but we are also getting into some concert band music as well. The 1st Quarter Playing test is due on Friday, Oct. 20 by 11:59pm via GoogleClassroom or email. This is a hard deadline and is a 100 point grade. If your child does not turn it in by the assigned time and date, it is a zero. All required materials can be found on GoogleClassroom. Our Butter Braid fundraiser will begin on Monday, Oct. 16th and orders with payment will be due on Friday, Nov. 3. Pick up will be Friday, Nov. 17 in CMHS Commons. This weekend is our last marching band competition! We are traveling to Potosi, MO. It is a long day with an early call time. The itinerary can be found here. Lunch will be chicken and various sides (no cost), but please make sure to provide your child with snacks/breakfast food and money for dinner. If you are interested in volunteering this day as a chaperone, please let me know. I only have two chaperones so far! Also, if you are available to help move equipment onto the field, please let me know as well. Saturday, Oct. 21 is our Marches with Munchies event! This celebration is held to CELEBRATE! the end of the marching band season and the start of the concert band season. Various awards will be handed out and fun will be had! Hope to see everyone there and please see below for the volunteer sign up for the event. Here, you will find the preliminary pep band schedule. These dates are subject to change. Pep band games are required for band students. They are 25 points each. If an absence is communicated with me BEFORE the game (approved reasons can be found in the band handbook and syllabus), the absence will be considered excused and no make up assignment will be required. If the absence is communicated with me during or after the game, the absence will be considered a zero. Thank you for your diligence on communicating absences.
