Dear WBMS 7th Grade Band Parents, The students are doing a great job in class continuing to improve on their instruments and music. The students have their first major assessment in class on Friday, August 29th over the F Concert Major Scale. Please encourage them to practice this scale in preparation of their upcoming assessment. The band room is a busy place in the school with over 415 students passing through our band halls every day. ***We need to stock up on Tissues and Hand Sanitizer in the band room. If you are able, please donate to the band room some tissues and/or hand sanitizer.*** Thank you to everyone who has already brought in donations! Please see below some important events/due dates coming up for the 7th Grade Band.

Please make note of one calendar change we decided to make from our first email. *The October concert for 7th Grade will now be on Thursday, October 23rd. We never like to make changes to our scheduled performances, but we needed to change this particular date from the previously scheduled date of October 2nd.* The 7th Grade Band students are doing a great job in class as we are already diving into new music and warm-ups. Please be sure your child is prepared for band class every day by having all required materials. A list of required materials can be found here: WBMS Band Handbook Please find a bulleted list of important items relating to 7th Grade below.
