  Good afternoon band families,  I hope you have all been doing well! We had a successful football game this week, we LOVED getting to welcome Jupiter's Band and perform a joint halftime. We have a gap in our schedule from games, our next one is Sep 18 (Hoco).  Originally, we also had a 9-9 scheduled for Sep 6, but as of a month ago, that 9-9 is REMOVED so the kids can focus on their homework, catching up on studying, and taking the ACT. This week is SUPER light, but please let us know if we can do anything for you and your family; happy to help in any way.  Week at a Glance: Monday, September 1 -- Labor Day, no school and no rehearsal Monday, September 1 -- Second Fair Share payment due, $400 Tuesday, September 2 -- Full Marching Band Rehearsal, 4pm-8pm Thursday, September 4 -- Full Marching Band Rehearsal, 4pm-8pm Fair Share Payments: Fair Share can now be paid on School Cash Online  at  https://palmbeach. schoolcashonline.com .

  Good morning band families,  Our first game was a SUCCESS on Friday! The kids had a great time, we had a great time, they nailed their show during Halftime, and I am sure we sent home some tired kids who hopefully are resting and getting their HW done this weekend.  This week will look slightly different; same structure with Gamedays, but on a different day... Thursday! As soon as the game is over (around 9:00/30pm), we implore the kids to go home ASAP when their stuff is put away since we have school the next day. We will be reminding them throughout the week to plan ahead for their homework and studying.  As always, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns, happy to help in any way.  Week at a Glance: Monday, August 25 -- Full Marching Band Rehearsal***, 4pm-8pm *** Note the schedule change on Monday -- it is for all sections because of the Thursday football game. Tuesday, August 26 -- Full Marchin...

  Good morning band families, We are beyond proud of our students for everything they’ve accomplished and the incredible progress they’ve made during band camp. Seeing everyone come together at Friends & Family Night was such a joy, and it’s been amazing to watch the bonds you’ve built with each other in just three short weeks.  With school starting tomorrow, remember that your band family is here for you, especially if you’ve got the “first day of school” scaries! I will be in the band room around 6:30–6:45 AM, so feel free to come hang out, ask older members for advice, get schedule help, or simply start your morning surrounded by friends.  Our weekly emails will start going to ALL band families this week, so you will have more information outside of Marching Band included in the weekly emails! :)  There is  no Marching Band rehearsal  t his week M-F , but we’ll be back on Saturday for a 9–9 “catch-all” day to make sure everyone is on the sa...

I hope all are resting this weekend, these kids should be so proud of how much they have been able to accomplish in 2 weeks. This week, we transition into our 4-hour rehearsals that mimic what the school year will look like. Teachers also go back to school this week, meaning our students can take the day to prep, relax, (catch up on their summer reading assignments that all of them...definitely started...!), etc.  Looking forward to a great few days, an amazing friends and family show on August 6, and a great finish to the summer!  Please read below for all pertinent information, and as always, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.
