Jazz Band Auditions:

Thank you for everyone who auditioned for the Jazz Band this year. It takes a lot of courage to audition  and everyone should be very proud. I was extremely excited that so many students wanted to be part of the Jazz Band. We had almost 40 students audition! Unfortunately, this is too many students for the Jazz Band. For those who did not make the Jazz Band this year, I am going to have a Jazz Lab Band that will be held once a week after school stating in January. In this class, students will learn about playing Jazz and build skills that will help them in their audition for next year. I encourage all of those students who did not make the Jazz Band this year to participate in this class. 

 Lesson Reminder:

I have also posted the pullout lesson schedule on this blog. Please review this lesson schedule with your child so they know when they need to bring their instrument. Please note that their lesson day might not fall on a band rehearsal day. Being prepared for lesson is part of your student's grade so it is important that they remember their instrument and music for lesson.
