Thanks for listening to your kids!

What a great response to your child's performance at home!  Many of the band students have returned their forms already.  Thanks for taking a few moments to listen to them play.  I also appreciate your comments on the sheet.  I will make every effort to address any concerns that you have about your child's progress.  The most important thing they can do right now is PRACTICE, PRACTICE AND THEN MORE PRACTICE!!  The reinforcement at home of the different concepts that we work on in band is necessary to continue making progress on their instruments!  Keep up the good work at home. 

Another thing that I have found to be very refreshing with this group of 5th graders is their use of the simple phrase 'Thank you'.  I am always pleasantly surprised to hear those words from a student as they leave the room after a lesson or rehearsal.  Enjoy the weekend!  Until next Friday......
