Students and Parents,
I hope you have had a wonderful summer! Please make sure you follow the link provided for the intent form for next weeks band clinics. Arrangements for guests have been made and we're expecting EVERYONE to attend on the rehearsal date for the 2018-2019 group you have been signed up for. If there is any confusion or question in regards to who, I will send a link out to students via Remind. Pizza will be provided for participants. Students are asked to bring their own drinks/snacks as there will not be enough time to leave campus and return. Thank you and looking forward to a great start to the school year! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe4Q5iKeuFT7hDeDE4MYQSFPfrR8bhJXjO86wfubqvgiMX7_g/viewform?usp=sf_link UPDATED: Please capitalize the first initial of the First and Last name.
