Parents,
Please make sure your child is practicing daily. This is the only way we can improve as a group. Below are some important announcements. Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a great week!
Jazz band rehearsals will be Mondays and Fridays after school from 3:45pm-5:00pm. If you have any questions please email Mr. Gibson.
Select 7th and 8th grade students have been nominated to audition for SC region and York County all county band. If your child wants to audition for this event and their name is not on the list please contact Mr. Gibson. All students have received a packet explaining what region band and all county band is. Students will have until October 18th to accept their nomination. Please see the nomination list on the band website.
Our annual winter concert is December 16th. This is a mandatory event for all band students. Students not in attendance will receive a 0% for a test grade. All students will need to be in concert black attire for this event. (Boys black dress pants, black dress shirt, black belt, and black dress shoes. Ladies black dress is school dress code or black slacks, black top, and dress shoes.) You may purchase the students attire anywhere you would like. If you have any questions please email Mr. Gibson.
I have attached a link to concert attire if you have trouble finding concert black.

All students are expected to practice daily.
All band students can come in the band room to practice in the mornings. Students should take advantage of this opportunity.
All percussion students can attend Mr. Hall’s night of percussion from 4pm-5pm on Tuesday 10-15-19 in the Clover High School band room. Students can take the high school shuttle or can be dropped off for the event. This is a great opportunity for our percussion students to get better on their instrument. If you have any questions please email Mr. Gibson.
Thank you for all that you do for our band students. Have a great day!
