Hi, hey, hello!
Yard Sign & Decal Fundraiser Thank you to everyone who ordered a yard sign or window decal! Our approximate profit from this fundraiser was $528.60! Huge thank you to Jolene Cole for putting this fundraiser together for us - I look forward to doing this fundraiser every year if possible and there is interest! Other Fundraisers for 2020 We will NOT be selling Bobby's Caramel Apples this year due to them not running the fundraiser. Our next fundraiser will be our annual Butter Braids fundraiser. This will kick off on October 19 with orders due by November 2 and delivery being November 11. They have incorporated a curbside pick up to avoid entering the building as well as their online sales option. When this fundraiser was originally scheduled, it was to help with payment for our Florida trip, however, now the funds raised will be split: half for our new uniform account and half for general fundraising for the band. Grading & Remote Assignments As a reminder, the due date for remote assignments from Monday-Thursday of this next week will be on Thursday by 11:59pm. Beginning this Friday, all assignments from Friday-Thursday of the following week will be due on Thursday by 11:59pm. I'm hoping this gives you a little bit of flexibility during your school week as we continue to navigate the hybrid schedule together. I also wanted to touch base on late work: I will accept ALL late work with no penalty every quarter. Again, flexibility is the name of the game this year. That being said, I want to make sure you're clear of the following: 1. If you turn in an assignment late, I will grade it and update grades whenever I can. This might mean that the grade isn't updated instantly. That's the cost of turning in late work. 2. Work due in one quarter, but turned in after the quarter, will not be accepted. While giving you all this opportunity, I also want to encourage you to ALWAYS turn in your work on time. While each teacher is different in this, when you enter the adult life, due dates aren't recommendations, they are requirements. If you're late on a bill payment, the consequence is a late fee. If you continue to be late, the consequence could be your power being shut off, phone being disconnected, etc. I'm being flexible because I care about you all, but the person in charge of your phone bill will not feel the same way. Sight Reading Factory - $2 If you haven't paid this $2, please do so this week. I'm missing this from a few individuals. If you cannot pay this fee this week, please send me an email letting me know. Percussion Rehearsal Times L-Z students will always have percussion rehearsal from 3-4:30pm and A-K students will always have percussion rehearsal from 5-6:30pm on Thursdays. Consider this change permanent! Fall Concert Our fall concert is currently scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 20 at 7pm. While my hope is that this concert is held in-person with a live audience, I will let you know the exact plan as we get closer to this date. --- What do I need in class this week? 1.
