6th Grade Parent Letter



Parents,



Below are some important announcements. Our 6th grade band is working hard to put on a stellar concert on December 16th. Please let me know if you have any questions. Have a great week!

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. Students who do not know their music for the concert will not perform on the concert. Students and parents will be notified by the first week of December if their child will not be participating on the winter concert. 

All band students can come in the band room to practice in the mornings. Students should take advantage of this opportunity.

I will also be available to help students on Wednesday and Thursday this week after school until 5:00pm. This is optional for students. 

All percussion students can attend Mr. Hall’s night of percussion from 4pm-5pm on Tuesday 11-12-19 in the Clover High School band room. Students can take the high school shuttle or can be dropped off for the event. If you have any questions please email Mr. Gibson. 
 
All Woodwind students should be playing on a good reed. If a student needs a reed it is $2.

All brass players should have valve oil/ slide grease. If a student needs oil/grease it is $2.

Thank you for all that you do for our band students. Have a great day!
