Welcome back to school! We are gearing up for what is going to be another fantastic year of music making. This year, we will be providing this amazing experience to over 250 students, a new record for student enrollment in the Carson Middle School band program. Please read through the following important announcements:
Band Handbook *Please click here to read before coming to Sneak Peak* - Contains all essential information about the 2019-2020 Carson Middle School band program, including student expectations, grades, fees, instrument info, event calendar, and more. Please read through this with your student and complete the agreement form by Friday, August 30.
CMS Sneak Peak/Band Fees - Come meet Mr. Jacques and pay your band fees (with cash or check) in the band room during CMS Sneak Peak on August 14 and 15 from 4:00-6:00 PM. Mr. Jacques will also be available after 6:00 PM for any other questions following the CMS Sneak Peak.
Instrument Rental Night - On Thursday, August 22, Blue Note B's Horn Shop will be having an instrument rental night at Carson Middle School from 6:00-8:00 PM. They offer rental and rent-to-own options and will also have supplies available for purchase.
You are also free to check out my list of other area music stores and comparison shop if you'd prefer. This night is also when students can pick up their school instruments if they have filled out an Instrument Rental Application and have been notified by Mr. Jacques that there is an instrument available. I highly recommend renting from Blue Note B's if you are able.
Jazz Band - All students who are interested in Jazz Band should plan to attend our open rehearsals starting on the first day of school at 7:00 AM in the band room. The first 2 weeks of the class will be open to anyone registered in another band class, with auditions taking place during the second week of school.
First day with instruments:
- Jazz Band: Monday, August 19
- Concert, Intermediate, and Advanced Band: Wednesday, August 21
- Beginning Band: Monday, August 26
-Mr. Jacques-
