Welcome!

Hello all and welcome to Gold Band!

Students will begin to regularly meet as a group beginning on Friday, November 7.  Students will come to room 620 for rehearsal during 5A and 5B before eating lunch during 5C. This year, we are excited to announce that Mr. Harris and Mrs. Culver will be co-directing the ensemble.  Our focus during these first few weeks will be on reviewing fundamentals and preparing our music for the holiday concert on Tuesday, December 9 and 7:00 p.m. in the high school auditorium.

All students received a copy of the Gold Concert Band Handbook at our first rehearsal on November 7.  This document contains many details, including grading policies and a calendar of events.  (We are guessing if you have found your way here, you may have already seen this document!)  At the end of the handbook is a contract for you and your students to sign and return to us.  Please send this to school no later than Friday, November 14, 2014.  Please let Mr. Harris or Mrs. Culver know if you have any questions or concerns about this.

Finally, consider signing up to receive an email notice when a new post is added.  We will try to update the blog every week or so to keep parents and students up to date.

Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns.  We are looking forward to a productive, positive, rewarding experience with all of you! :-)
