Not even Hurricane Helene could stop us from having another awesome Friday night under the lights! The 8th grade band members knocked it out of the park helping the high school band debut part of Show 3 and We cannot wait to welcome our 8th grade band members into the high school band family next year. Another huge thank you to GHBOB for feeding the band pizza and making sure each 8th grade band member got a chocolate covered pretzel surprise!
Evening Rehearsals We have ONE more Evening Rehearsals for this season and that number will not increase. All rehearsals are considered required and will be calculated into your grade. Exceptions to the requirement are (1) for athletes who have traveling matches which return later than 9:00PM, or, (2) on a case-by-case basis as needed. Work and non-Grandview Heights activities should be scheduled around Evening Rehearsals; please submit the dates above to your work management or advisors. Our next night rehearsal is Thursday, October 17, 8:00-10:00PM. Traditional Uniform - Reminder There are several components to the uniform:
Traditional Uniform - Policies and Procedures - Reminder
Attendance Policy All band members make a commitment when they join the band. These commitments extend to attending all rehearsals and performances. The dates of such are published and made known well in advance. Additionally, directors ensure reminders of rehearsals and performances are part of the daily rehearsal schedule. It is expected that all members will be in attendance at all scheduled events. Should a student be unable to make a particular rehearsal or performance, then a parent/guardian must notify the director via email preferably two weeks in advance of the requested absence. In the event of a medical or family emergency, the parent/guardian should contact Mrs. Olis at a time most convenient to the family’s needs by phone or email. Medical and/or family emergencies are automatically excused. This includes students who are marked ‘Excused’ absent from school on the day of a performance. Unexcused absences can result in lowered grades and loss of permission to travel. An unexcused performance can never be made up. Actions or lack thereof speak louder than words. As stated previous, band is co-curricular. As such, work is not an excuse. Communicate clearly with your employer and well in advance. Missing school for work is unexcused; therefore; missing band for work is ALSO UNEXCUSED. Band Parent Association - October Meeting Our next Band Parent Association meeting is scheduled for Thursday, October 10 at 6:30PM in the high school band room. We hope to see you there! Jazz Concert - Wednesday, October 16, 7:00PM The 2024-2025 High School Jazz Ensemble will open their performance season with their first concert on Wednesday, October 16th at 7:00PM.
