Do you need help practicing your lesson HW assignment? Guided practice sessions are offered weekly and hosted by our junior and senior band members (thank you!). Students who lead or attend a session receive 1 point of extra credit. Sessions are held period 9, unless noted otherwise. I am also always available for help by appointment.

Please join me before school (from 7:10…or whenever you get off the bus… until the first bell) to practice improvising. Help yourself develop your skills and a plan for success!
Rehearsals are 7:00-8:30 in the YHS Band Room. Jazz Band students are asked to arrive by 6:50 so we can be warmed up and tuned to start promptly at 7:00. Music, recordings, and this week’s HW are all posted on Dashboard.
I am now able to log in and see each students’ orders! Tomorrow in class I will hand each student a print out of their orders.
We still have a few mystery customers who are not attached to a student. Did your student sell to any of these people: Kaethe Bierbach, Anna Hoti-Munson, Lauren Biczak, Mary Mitchell, Natalie Johnson, Barbara Walsh, Miwa Wenzel, or Joann Monroe?
Due to the extended tech glitch, the grove is allowing us to extend our truck delivery sales date:

2. Sunday, December 15th is still the on-line order deadline for USPS delivery to your home/customers’ homes

Such a fun tradition! Our 21st annual costume contest will take place in class on Thursday, October 31st. Winners in each class will receive half of Ms. Kluga’s citrus order. (Extra points if your costume is home-made, or in any way musical.) Looking forward to celebrating this fun day with you!
*FYI – the grove is aware of the website issue. I will have more info this week. Thank you for your patience!
