Booster Meeting This Thursday

Parents and Students,
First and foremost a huge thank you to all those that made yesterday's MPA camp a huge success. Yesterday was outstanding! The band was able to get through all of its music for our festival and now has two months to fine tune and prepare for our contest. Here are a few announcements for the week:

  • This Thursday is our monthly band booster meeting. The meeting starts at 6 in the band room. All parents are welcome and encouraged to attend.
  • The next band performance is on Feb. 9th at B.B.Comer High School Auditorium more information will follow in the next few weeks. 
Have a great week!

Welcome Back/ MPA Camp


Parents and Students,
I hope everyone has had a wonderful and restful winter break. It is hard to believe that the school year is now half way completed. During the next couple of months the high school band will be preparing for the Alabama Bandmasters Associations Music Performance Assessment. A music competition involving numerous bands from our area as well as hundreds from around the state. To help us prepare for this event we will be hosting the second annual MPA camp on Saturday January 9th from 1:00-9:00pm. Here is the itinerary (MPA Camp). This camp is a required events. Students who are absent for an unexcused reason will be deducted a grade letter and ineligible to participate in the state assessment. This event is a lot of fun and gives each member a chance to individually work with an expert on their instrument. I can't wait to see everyone this coming week and hope everyone has a great remaining few days of their break.

Regards,
Mr.Rogers
