This message is for all 8th grade parents and students. 

I was reminded by Mr. Carr today about the new member meeting at 7pm on May 3rd. It’s going to be a busy week that week for all 8th grade band members. Let’s recap. 

Monday May 2nd:  5:30 arrival time at Tabernacle Baptist Church for the CJHS awards night. Mandatory for all 8th graders (including those not receiving awards). We will be done at 6:15pm. 

Tuesday May 3rd:  New member meeting for all 8th graders moving on to HS band. Not signed up? Please feel free to come and get the information. We can change your schedule. Don’t miss out on joining the largest team at the HS. This meeting will take place at 7pm at the HS band room. 

Thursday May 5th:  Band BBQ performance at the HS. 5:30pm warmup and 6pm performance in Grisham Stadium. The event will finish at 7pm. Please come and get some BBQ and watch your child perform with the HS marching band. 

Friday May 6-8:  Carowinds trip. I will send out the itinerary this week. 

We have so many 8th grade events coming up. Remember all of these events are made successful by having perfect attendance. Please plan to attend every event, let me know if your child needs a ride I can arrange to have someone pick them up. 

Thanks again.
