We are onto Week 2 of Band Camp, and school starts Wednesday! WOOHOO! We have had an amazing week 1 of band camp and have gotten a head start on our competitive field show, learned how to march, learned a bunch of new pep tunes, have had sectional time with our instructors, and students have been bonding with their fellow students.
We are going to have some shortened last couple days of band camp rehearsals. Check out the schedule below. Thank you parents for being flexible...once we get into the school year our rehearsal schedule stays consistent. Please know that the band room will be open for students all day Monday and Tuesday if they want to practice, need to do summer reading, or just need to hangout. I know that you may not be able to pick them up/drop them off at a new time so the space will be open for them.
Leadership will be performing at Monday morning's HBHS Staff Meeting. Call-time is 7:20am, unfortunately very early.
