Leadership camp is going great!  I’m really happy with the turnout and the participation.  Check out my Leadership Team page for more info.

Symphonic Band rehearsal was great today (Mon. 5/4).  Hairspray is really coming along.  Practice hard on all of your pieces so we’ll have a great spring concert.  Finish up your listening assignment on the Symphonic Band page.

Percussionists have a busy week ahead.  Check the Percussion Info. page for all the detail on rehearsals for the concert and upcoming drumline try outs.

Everyone needs to practice their music for band tryouts.  Remember, auditions for next year’s bands begin Friday May 15 during class.  Be prepared.

Have a great week Falcon Band…It Starts Here!!!
