Weekly Update (8/16- 8/20)
This is your weekly MUSIC DEPARTMENT update!
Hello Folks!
I hope everyone had a good first week of school! It has been so exciting getting to see everyone as we get into the swing of this new school year! Everything seems to be getting off to a good start! Let’s keep the good energy going!
I’m glad to see we were able to have fun on Saturday at the duck pond! Thanks to the student leaders who put it on!
One quick thing, since it seems as though most people can handle filling their jug with water on their own, the Quartermaster is not going to be filling water jugs moving forward UNLESS someone is in dire need of water. Please plan to fill your own water jug with ice and water before arriving at after school rehearsal.
This week is pretty easy! Let’s have fun!

Union County Football Game
We will not be attending the Away vs. Union County Football Game on 8/20. This will give us a little bit more time to put together our halftime show.
All State Kiddos
If you are preparing an audition for All State, please let me know by sending me an email at myles.moore@bakerk12.org or by talking to me in person. All State is fast approaching! Auditions are on September 11th! If you do not know how to play your scales and get through your prepared pieces by this point, you are behind!
Parent Volunteers/ Chaperones
Chaperone sign-ups are available on Cut Time! You can log in to cut time using your student’s account or you can create an account and link it to your student! Volunteers are how we keep this program running so please make time to help us out where possible! Remember that to volunteer in any event that is going to have you around students for an extended amount of time, you must complete and turn in a volunteer form per the Baker County School District.
