Time to order your shirt!

5th-8th Grade Performing Arts Shirts

(Band and Chorus)

   It’s time for 5th-8th grade musicians to order their WCS Performing Arts shirts! All 5th-8th grade performing arts (band and chorus) students will need to wear this shirt on concert days and to field trips and other organized events.

     We are using the same shirts as we have in the past. Older students should check and be sure they have their shirt and that it will fit them for the remainder of the year as this is the only order we are placing.  

       All students new to the program and older students that need to replace their shirt  should  place an order and send your payment directly to your child’s music teacher.  Shirts need to be ordered and paid for by Friday, October 28, 2016.  The cost is  $8 and financial support may be requested.

Look who came to visit!

Lessons!

Small group lessons will begin next week for most band students. In lessons, students will learn instrument specific literacy and techniques that are applied in the large group rehearsals. This year we will use google classroom to track our work. The lesson schedule (which states the time of their lesson each week) will be posted in 3 places:      

• the bulletin board in the band hall 
• google classroom
• in public team spaces                                                                      

If you wish to have a schedule emailed to you please contact  Kim Thompson.
