Elementary School Visits Are Underway –
I have started my yearly visits to the elementary schools to see the 5th graders. It has been a great time to talk about signing up for band and I’ve had the chance to show them some of the band instruments and talk about our program. Here is a link to the beginning band sign up form: http://www.nlcs.k12.in.us/bedjrhi/Band/Microsoft%20Word%20-%206th%20grade%20sign%20up%202012.pdf. Here is a link to our beginning band brochure: http://www.nlcs.k12.in.us/bedjrhi/Band/BMS%20Band%20Brochure%202012.13.pdf. We have a lot to offer here at BMS and the band program is a great way to get involved in our school.
Friday, May 25 last day to play –
Friday, May 25 is the last day we will play instruments in band class for this school year. This gives parents time to return any rented instruments before June 1 to Melody Music in Bloomington. It also gives students a few days to take personal instruments home for the summer. Only school owned instruments are to remain in the band building over the summer break.
Washington D.C. DVD’s to arrive next week –
The Tales From The Road DVD’s of pictures from the Washington D.C. trip should arrive next week. I can’t wait to see what the Music Travel Consultant’s have put together for us. It will bring back some fantastic memories from a very memorable trip.
Have a great week!
