Picture
We would like to invite you to the first Heritage Candles and Melts Fundraiser! We need to sell 120 items to get free shipping. With over 160 students in the program, that should be doable.  Attached is a PDF of the forms. 50% profit goes towards your students participation donation, not to mention the multipurpose bonus.  Take a look at the PDF pick some for yourself, then pass it on to friends and family.  Grazyna Baran will have the hard copies and instructions for the students on Tuesday, February 19th, 2019.

If you do not know any current families in the program and would like to place an order, you may e-mail Mr. Smith and arrange a way for payment and order to be received.

2019-2020 Marching Band Leadership Applications

1/31/2019

 
There were many great students who served on leadership this year, and it was noticeable with how various sections progressed and adapted to a variety of rehearsal, instructional, and logistical information! With the close of the 2018-2019 season, we have already started to plan and look toward next year.  There are several students graduating and moving on and this is the perfect opportunity to select a dynamic leadership team who will strive to meet the vision(s) of the current director and instructional staff.  Just because someone was on leadership this year does not necessarily mean they will automatically earn the position again for next year.  Current leaders who are juniors going into their senior year, who will be returning as members, will need to go through this process if they wish to be considered for leadership next year.  The purpose for this is to allow the current director to select a leadership who will, again, support his vision(s) for the direction he wants to take the program.  Any students who are thinking of becoming a leader now, or in the future, are encouraged to go through the process.  ​Please see the attached leadership application packet, so that you are thoroughly understand what will be asked of you.

We want to interview, and have everyone go through mock/demo leadership rehearsals so that we can select the leadership before we begin with our pre-season camps.  This way, our incoming students will know who will be leading them from the start.
