We had a very large and enthusiastic group of sixth grade students come in to the first day of sixth grade band.
So large in fact that we had to quickly pull out an extra 30 chairs just to give them all somewhere to sit. It is such a large group and I am very excited, yet I would like to ask that any parent(s) who can volunteer some time in the class room, please do so. You do not need to know anything about music. I will need you mostly for crowd control and for clarification of confused students during the learning process. This week will be spent learning about what instruments are available to study and how the class will function. All of the students in attendance should have come home with the ACMS band handbook for you to peruse and sign. I will be highlighting sections of the handbook here as we start the school year. Here is the cover page information:
ACMS Band Handbook
Mr.Humphreys, Music

This handbook contains the resources every band student should use to be successful in the ACMS music program. You will find lists of supplies, awards, what parents can do to help, locations of local music stores and band program policies.
(Tear off and return)
