Greetings Trojan Band Family!

Thank you SO much for a wonderful first week of school and a fantastic yard concert for our community and Blue Dragon! It was a fun event and you guys make it memorable!

Fair Share #2 was due last week! If you are paying the payment plan, you can send in cash or check OR pay HERE on the website.

This is our first GAME WEEK! So exciting! We will have a Pep Rally on Thursday, you will need to bring your 2019 SHOW SHIRT with you to school. You will wear normal rehearsal clothes to rehearsal. Once rehearsal concludes, you will change into your show shirt and head to the big gym. We will play all pep rallies during first period. Everyone is required to attend unless you have a quiz in a class that you cannot miss – in that case you just need to fill out this form by end of the day Wednesday.

ITEMS TO HAVE FOR THE GAME: Water jug cleaned, Blue Polo, Stone colored shorts cleaned and ironed/pressed, Brown Belt, no-show white socks, all white tennis shoes, HAIR pins, spray, gel and ties – to put long hair in a bun. **Guard will get instructions and packing list from Mr. Josey**

Parents, if you did not purchase the meal plan for your student, you will want to send a big, filling meal to school with them or drop it off right at the end of school at 4:30. They will not have time to walk anywhere – and you do NOT want them to go without food. It’s a long night! I recommend also sending a bus snack or two with them. They will get a bus snack and water from us at the end of the night – but after a full day of school sometimes it’s nice to have a little something more.

SCHEDULE FOR THE WEEK:

Monday night FULL rehearsal 5-7:30pm (please send an after school snack with your student and if possible, a gatorade since the temps have been higher)

Wednesday morning – 7:10-8:40am band and perc no guard

Wednesday night – Guard ONLY

Thursday morning FULL – 7:10-8:40am + First period PEP RALLY

Friday morning – Usually after a Thursday night game, as long as all goes well I cancel the Friday morning rehearsal – however, I always make that call on Thursday night and post in the band app.
