This will be the final update for the school year. I’ll send updates through the summer as necessary. We will not start anything until July at the earliest. Guard and percussion may do some virtual workshops prior to that.
SENIORS(GRADUATES)
I’ve seen some cap and gown pictures from you, but I would like to see them from everyone. Send them my way when you get a chance.
INSTRUMENTS
If you want to keep the school-owned instrument over the summer, please e-mail Mr. Hatcher a picture of the instrument and case at thatcher@psd202.org. You do not need to report to instrument turn-in or check-out. If you have an instrument that you checked out and it’s not your primary instrument for band or marching band, that will need to be returned.
MUSIC AND FOLDERS
Hold onto your music for the summer. We will return it in the fall. However, if you are not returning to band next fall, you will need to turn it in on Tuesday.
CHANGE-Wednesday May 20th – Instrument/Music Turn-in and Locker Clean-out
We had to change this due to an emergency cleaning at school.
Mr. La Vallee will be collecting instruments and music from students on Wednesday from 12-2pm. This is for students not returning to band next year or if you need to return it for a different reason. Equipment will be collected curbside at Door Q.
LOCKERS: For all students, if you need something out of your band locker, email Mr. La Vallee at jlavallee@psd202.org He will collect it for you and have it outside on Tuesday. You can pick it up curbside at Door Q from 1-3pm. No students will be allowed inside the building.
CHANGE-Thursday, May 28th – Instrument Check-out (8th grade included)
Mr. Hatcher had to change this date due emergency home repair. You can edit or change your time at the Signup Genius link. Signup needs to be completed by May 26th so I can prepare instruments.
For students wishing to check out an instrument or for colorguard wanting to check out some practice equipment, you may pick it up on Thursday. This will be by APPOINTMENT ONLY. Signup at the link below. Please indicate in the comment section what instrument or equipment you need so it is prepared for you. Mr. Hatcher will have it ready for you at that time on the curb outside of Door Q. All appointments are between 9 and 11am. PLEASE NOTE: If instruments need to get repaired, it may not be available that day. I will notify you and we will designate a pickup day when it is repaired.

COLORGUARD
We will have an introduction meeting on Wednesday, May 20th, at 3pm on Zoom. A link will be texted out beforehand.
GRADES
Teachers have to submit grades on Wednesday afternoon, so that grade will reflect everything students have turned in by NOON that day. Please get missing work in if you want it to count.
