7th Grade Field Trip!

The 7th Grade Beginning Band will travel to the BJCC on Wednesday to attend a presentation by the Alabama Symphony Orchestra. We are excited for the students to have the opportunity to see professional musicians perform on instruments that our students have been trying to learn and perfect all year. The presentation will focus on "putting it all together", what it takes to present a concert and all that is involved. Some of our students will experience orchestral playing for the first time, how exciting!

All band students are to report to the bandroom at 7:45a.m. We will depart at 8am and return no later than 2p.m. The concert is at 10:00a.m. at the BJCC. We will stop for lunch on the way back; don't forget to bring lunch money! (Students do not have to wear school uniform, however, 'nice' dress is expected - no t-shirts and jeans.)

The majority of the 7th grade band students have turned in their forms and money, however, there are still a few that have not done so. If you have lost your form, forgotten about it, or simply need to turn yours in, please do so ASAP.

I look forward to having a fun filled trip with lots to be shared with your fellow classmates and friends when we return!
