4 Weeks To Go

While there are no new announcements this week, we continue to ask parents to check in with their students regarding their progress on music checks. If students have not checked any of their trip music off with a director, they are behind. Rehearsals for the trip will begin on Wednesday, following Tuesday night's concert. Student and chaperone passports should already be turned in to the band office, and Six Week Questionnaires are due from all participants immediately. Final reservations for meals are already being made, and the information on that sheet is important for making those decisions. Be watching for the Trip Medical Form that will be posted on this website shortly. Once posted, we ask that all trip participants fill them out and return them as soon as possible. Remember that the final document meeting is scheduled for March 17 at 7 PM in the Shaker Middle School Auditorium for all trip participants.

To whet you appetite, read a brief history of Verona, Italy, one of the stops on the trip, here.
