This means you can no longer just walk into the band room during school hours. You MUST go to the office first. Then you may go to the band room. This is for our student's security. Please adhere to this policy whenever you visit the campus during school hours. Thanks you! Elections for the Mighty Sailor Band Booster Executive Board were held on 3/9.

Complete 2008 Football Schedule Corporate sponsorships and grants are essential to augment the funds received from parents. People with experience in these areas are needed to help with our Corporate Relations committee. Please contact Jeanne Heere if you can help. Marching Band is the most visible part of our program, but the Boosters support all the bands at SHS. Instructors, instruments and music for the Admirals, Orchestra and Wind Ensemble are paid for by the Boosters. Even if your students are not in the Marching Band, the Boosters are here for them, please join us and participate. All students are expected and required to attend listed after school practices. If we are to play the literature that we can, we need more time than the normal school day affords us. If the need for an absence should arise, please give Mr. Roseboom written notification signed by a parent 48 hours in advance. |
