Broncho Orchestra November 11, 2022
Hey Orchestra! Here’s your weekly snapshot of what you need to know:
S&E
Begin thinking about Solo & Ensemble, if and how you want to participate. Remember, if you didn’t fundraise the cost is $12.00 per individual. The slips are still on the podium. Please fill one out and turn it in to me before Thanksgiving if interested.
Third Six Weeks
Third six weeks assignments are now up in Schoology. Let me know if you can’t see them for any reason. First one is due this coming weekend, Sunday at midnight.
Evening Rehearsals
Reminder, as we’ve discussed, evening rehearsals are mandatory. Conflicts should be discussed with me in advance, and we’ll talk about whether or not it’s excused. The Handbook you received at the beginning of the year covers most scenarios. If you need a ride, reach out to your peers. I promise someone can give you a ride if you simply ask.
