The end of the year is approaching fast!  Please take a minute to review the information below. 

1. Band Fees: Remember that outstanding membership fees from the 2016-17 school year should be paid before summer break.  Seniors with outstanding fees will not be allowed to participate in commencement ceremonies.  Please let us know if you need a Charms Statement emailed to you.
2. Class Placement: Class Placement auditions will take place this week Tuesday-Thursday. This decides whether you will be in Wind Ensemble, or Symphonic next year! If you need a copy of the etude, please see Ms. Palmer
   
3. Method Books: All school owned method books must be returned this week to our band librarians.  Method books were given to both Wind Ensemble and Symphonic Band. Students will be charged $10 for method books not returned or returned in poor condition.  
   
4. Cubbies: All cubbies should be completely cleaned out this week.  Any items left in the band room over the summer will be donated to GoodWill.  Please do not forget your stuff!
   
5. School Owned Instruments: We will be collecting, cleaning and repairing all school owned instruments this week.  Students should return any and all school owned equipment.    
   
6. Summer & Fall Schedule:  Please double check your calendars with our summer camp and fall rehearsal schedule.  This information was emailed in January, and can be viewed on our blog at: http://shs-band.com  
   

1. ROOKIE CAMP: May 22-25
2. MINI CAMP: July 17-21
3. BAND CAMP: July 24-28

7. Afterschool Rehearsals 2017: This year, our afterschool rehearsal schedule has a slight change. Our Thursday rehearsal will now be a night rehearsal from 6-8 at the Southside High School stadium! This is such exciting news for “The PRIDE”! At these rehearsals, we will be able to practice on a field that we will perform on under the lights. We want to invite parents to attend rehearsals in the stadium, especially for the final Thursday night full run through of the show, which will happen around 7:40 each Thursday night. Giving the students a crowd will help reward them for all the hard work they are doing! Monday and Tuesday rehearsals will remain the same at our practice field from 3:15-5:30.
