Everyone participating in Solo & Ensemble should be working on their music. Please feel free to come by the band hall after school to practice and ask a director for additional help if you need it - that's what we're here for!
Trip people - If you have not already, please turn in chocolate money asap and any delinquent payments. We should have new statements out to you soon. The trip will be here before you know it!
ALL: Please don't forget that your first concert and sight reading pass off is due tonight. All relevant information has been announced in class, posted in the band hall, and sent out via remind. I'll also be posting it on the front page of our website, www.pampaband.org. Reminder that your test grades this six weeks come from these music pass offs! Practicing your music, learning it, and completing these assignments is necessary to passing band!
