8th Grade Rehearsal and Trojan Band tomorrow

Hello all,

Thank you to my 7th grade students and parents for an awesome rehearsal after school yesterday. We had excellent attendance and the band is going to sound awesome at the concert on October 26th. 

Now it’s the 8th grade bands turn to have an awesome rehearsal.  Football players, I have spoken with Coach New and he has given me the green light to have you attend this rehearsal until 4pm tomorrow. I also know of a few cross country runners that will be with me until they leave for practice so this should be a well attended rehearsal. 

For those that are in Trojan band we will walk to the CHS band room to perform at the football game after rehearsal. We should be done around 7pm. 

Thanks all

Looking forward to another day full of band tomorrow.

Cookie Dough Wrap-Up

Hello All,

Thank you to my awesome volunteer mom’s who came to help sort, you did such a fantastic job getting everything put together and organized.  A huge thank you to everyone who sold cookie dough to help support the band or to help fund your Carowinds Trip.  I will be releasing all the forms and info very soon for the 8th grade spring trip to Carowinds so look for an information sheet and health form very soon.

Thank you again,

Mr. Huls

Cookie Dough Comes in Tomorrow

Hello all,

Just a friendly reminder that cookie dough orders will be here tomorrow. Please make sure if you have a large order (6 or more boxes) you will need to come pick it up, it will be too large to take on the bus.

Remember the dough needs to stay frozen so distribute it as soon as possible or get it into the freezer as soon as you get home. 

If you can come help sort orders in the morning please stop by. I will have doughnuts and coffee for you.

Thanks all

Playing Test Reports (PTR)

Hello All,

Today I sent home playing test reports and progress reports with all 8th grade students.  On the report are some details about your child’s performance on their chair test and some insight into how they have been performing in class so far this year.  This is designed to be honest feedback on what they are doing, how they are doing it, and what they can do to improve.  The playing test reports should be signed and returned to me ASAP for a grade in class.

I did this process with the 7th grade grade band members a few weeks ago, so 7th grade parents you should have seen them already.  If not please let me know and Ill get you a new one.

Only a couple more weeks in this grading period so if you need to improve a grade the time is now.  The band room is open everyday after school and every morning at 7:15am for anyone that wants to pass off grades, or turn in late work.

Thanks all

Mr. Huls

Cookie Dough Delivery Date

Thank you to everyone who sold cookie dough to help support the band or earn money toward their spring trip. 

The Junior High delivery date is Wednesday Oct 7th. I will need around 8-10 volunteers to come to the junior high at around 10 AM to help sort. If you can help please email me. 

Students will come home with their dough from school that day and it will need to be delivered immediately or stored in a freezer until it can be delivered. If you have a large order (more than 6 boxes) please plan on picking it up after school. 

Thanks all.
