Kennewick trip schedule

The Kennewick trip schedule will be handed out to students in class on Thursday.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, the current weather forecast for Kennewick is 40% chance of showers. In past years, that has been just sprinkles. However, if you plan to attend (you should!) be sure to bring clothing suitable for wet, windy and cool weather. And then if we are lucky, it will be 75 degrees on Saturday :)

Parents - you can help the Band Director

Parents... I need your help...

In order for me to be fully prepared for each Marching Band rehearsal, I would like to request that if you have questions to discuss with me on those days, that you catch me before 5:30 PM or immediately after our rehearsal.

What is happening is that I’m getting out to the field later and later each evening which is posing two concerns: the safety and well-being of each student and maximizing the use of our time set aside for these rehearsals. I must be on the field with the students for the duration of each rehearsal.

The best way to communicate at this time of the year is through email. I check and answer my email on a regular basis. If that isn’t possible, I will be more than willing to meet with you at the times listed above.

Thank you for understanding and for your continued support.

Jim Loucks, Band Director
