Greetings Eagle Family! Starting today, I will go back to posting our weekly updates back on the website. Middle school parents who might not be on the BAND App yet have been interested in seeing what we are up to at the high school, so I will now go back to posting the updates on the website AND the Band app so that you have multiple places to look at for the information! Go to https://www.atascocitaband.com/updates to begin finding all of our updates.
THIS WEEK:
BAND BASH: Reminder to RSVP. Send an email to [email protected] and send in payment of $20 in the black mailbox on the wall. Seniors are free. Senior parents are invited, at the $20 price. The Band Bash starts at 6PM and goes to 9PM in the High School cafeteria. LEADERSHIP INTERVIEWS: If you are a student auditioning to be on the leadership team, we will conduct interviews in class this week. CLASS PLACEMENT EVALUATIONS: Since the leadership interviews will take the week to do, we are going to push Evaluations back a week for us. We will start hearing students next week on April 29th during class. |
