Band Parents, 5/4/09
This note is to remind you about the Mt. Pisgah Band attendance policy, which is listed below. Students must attend the Spring Concert to be eligible for the field trip (6th grade) and Band Awards Banquet.
Spring Banquet/Field Trip Eligibility
The Spring Band Banquet is intended to reward those students who have worked hard and attended after school rehearsals throughout the year. The 6th grade field trip is an additional reward designed for beginning band students who have attended after-school band throughout the year. In order for students to be eligible for the banquet (and field trip), they must meet all performance and attendance obligations.
Thank you,
David Wood

FROM: Dr. Wood & Ms. Spain
RE: Selection of Honor Band
________________________________________________________________________
February 1st we will audition all students and select the more advanced performing students to form this year’s Honor Band. This group will represent Mt. Pisgah at the Regional Concert Festival, at Ridgeway Middle School, on March 11th.
After February 1st, this select Honor Band group will begin serious preparation for Concert Festival. This preparation will include meeting twice weekly on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons until Concert Festival. If your student will have a problem attending these extra rehearsals, please email me and let me know. (dwood@scsk12.org)
We are writing this note to encourage your student to practice, so that they might join this select group. The Honor Band will consist of no more than the top 50 band students in 7th and 8th grade. Those who are not selected will not have after school rehearsal from February 6, until after Spring Break.
Those students who have a failing band grade, will not be allowed to participate in Honor Band regardless of how well they perform. Please encourage your student to turn in his/her weekly practice sheets. Failure to turn in practice sheets will cause you student to failing band grade.
