1) Welcome back! I hope everyone had a great break, a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!
2) Bring your horns on Monday because we will be playing. Chair Auditions will be at the end of the week and we will be looking at those excerpts and scales starting tomorrow.
3) All West Audition Registration will be January 29th. That means you still have time to work on it. During class, we will be working with those that are interested in trying out. You will actually have more time during class this semester to get help on the music if you need it.
4) If you are interested in playing in the Jazz Band, stay after school on Tuesday from 3:30 to 4:30. This will be our introductory practice where we will discuss what Jazz Band will be, what kind of music we will be playing, and pick an afterschool rehearsal day that fits best for everyone. This is optional, something different, and something more laid back that you can participate in if you are interested.
5) Two things to know for this week at school - you will go to your homeroom class for the 1st 30 minutes of school Monday, and be patient with the teachers this week - we had a district wide problem with our network and we have been without our computers since that last Friday that teachers were at school. Most of us are behind on our grades and lesson planning so please be understanding as we might be a little more frazzled than normal this week!
