Dear Parents
The Clark Band is using Remind101 along with our website, twitter, and facebook for announcements and reminders. Please take the time to signup. This does not require any social media account. Go here for instructions.
This is an exciting time in beginning band. We have begun the process of getting ready to play our first full band concert and travel to Sandy Lake for our first band contest. Please be sure to check your calendar for the upcoming events in April.
We are learning new melodies each week to reinforce a new technique, a new rhythm, or a new concept. If your child is having trouble finding things to practice, ask them to demonstrate their newest song. This includes our band pieces: Imperium and Creepy Crawlies.
General Announcements
- It is normal to go longer than 30 minutes in a practice session because there is so much to practice. However, just practicing 30 minutes in a session is still acceptable.
- When a practice card is lost, it is acceptable to turn in practice times on a separate sheet of paper.
