I'm very excited to welcome you all back to another great year of band and strings at CMS! This year, the possibilities are endless and I cannot wait to begin working with all your wonderful musicians.
I need your help taking care of a few items so that the students can get off to a successful start:
- Handbook Contract/School Instrument Use Form - Handed out at Sneak Preview nights, and on Monday to your students, or available here. Click here to read the handbook and return this by Friday, August 21.
- Instrument Rentals - Use the above form to be considered for a school-owned instrument, or visit any of the other music shops. Click here to see a list of local stores that rent instruments. All students must have instruments by no later than Monday, August 24.
- Field Trip Form - Handed out at Sneak Preview nights and on Monday to your students. I need this form returned to me so that students may travel to festivals, parades, and other trips throughout the year. Please return this by Friday, August 21.
- Method Book - Available for purchase from Play Your Own Music beginning Friday, August 14. Click here to see which method book your student needs. Students must have their method book by Monday, August 24.
- Lab Fee: $20 - This fee covers specific items that your students will need throughout the year. Click here for details. Please pay by Friday, August 21.
On Monday, we will not need instruments. Their first day of playing is entirely dependent on how quick the students are to take care of the above items. In the past, the upper groups have been known to start playing as early as Wednesday. Young groups usually begin with instruments on the second week of school.
Feel free to email me if you have any further questions. Thank you for getting your students "up and running!"
-Mr. Jacques-
