band weekly

BAND WEEKLY
September 10th, 2012
____________________________________
Dear Band Parents,

Special people make an organization great.  Our school band is an organization made up of different groups of people with varied talents, interests and abilities.  When each group shares these talents and abilities with the band, our students benefit with a positive educational experience.

The Hamilton High School Band is fortunate to have a terrific group of musicians.  Their work in and out of the rehearsal is always a source of pride for me.  They spend many hours preparing their music in order to perform at their best.  They also serve as positive musical ambassadors throughout our school and community.

It is also important that we recognize the efforts of the administration and staff of Hamilton Local Schools.  The value they place on providing the students the resources and opportunities to participate in a program like ours demonstrates their commitment to providing the students a first-class education that includes the arts.

All of this would not be possible however, if it were not for you, the parents and guardians.   Your continued commitment to the artistic education of your child coupled with the first-hand support you extend are the reasons our program excels.  The contribution of your most valuable resource – your time- is a powerful statement to the members of our band.

Thank you for serving as a volunteer.  I hope that you enjoyed your experience with the band as much as the band enjoyed having you be a part.  I sincerely hope that I can call on you again to serve in this capacity.  You make a difference!

On behalf of all the students and myself, we again extend our sincere appreciation for your assistance.

Sincerely
Mr. Mark L. Frazier

NOTE FROM THE UNIFORM MOMS

If any student is having hem issues, including but not limited to safety pins holding their hems in place they need to write up a repair sheet.  If the uniform moms see any hem problems this coming Friday, they will collect your bibbers and not return them, until you speak to Mr. Frazier.

GET THAT REPAIR FORM FILLED OUT
