was a splendid success.
Many thanks to everyone that helped make this once in a lifetime opportunity for our kids
such a success. We are all excited by the
performances both bands on the stage of Carnegie Hall, as well as the jazz band, color
guard, and percussion ensembles at central park!
Please be sure that your child takes the time to write a thank you note to the chaperones
who took on the responsibility of guiding them on the trip. They can send them to the band
room if they can‘t find their address.

For those who are new to the high school band (8th and 9th grade), this is how it works: We will listen to every child perform their 12 major scales.
Based upon these auditions, they will be placed in a concert band for next spring. After spring break, we will hand each student a contract for next year and a schedule for all commitments in the fall semester.
