High School Soloist 2010 Fort
Lewis College Jazz Festival APS is
considering changing start and end times for schools next fall moving the
high school start time back to 8:35. This would mean that Zero Hour
for Marching Band, Symphonic Band and Wind Ensemble would have significantly
more daylight. Changes like this have been
rejected in the past due to complaints by afternoon activities about losing
daylight while our children come to school in the pitch dark. Superintendent Winston Brooks and
the APS administration encourage public comment on the proposal. Email your
comments to superintendent@aps.edu. Please support this change for our
children’s safety. More information can be found on
the APS
website. Solo &
Ensemble March 6 Volcano Vista HS We’ve had lots of concerts
already this spring. Have you smelled
that uniform? Many of the Wind Ensemble Students have been very busy. All band members please check your
uniforms to see that they are hung neatly and see if they need cleaning. Just because it’s not required doesn’t mean
it’s not a good idea. Mandatory Cleanings are April 10
and April 23 Stay tuned
for the Basketball
Playoff Pep Band Schedule Bands will not play this weekend, Mar 5-6 Spring
2010 Newsletter is available

contact Tara Otero via e-mail or call 859-2944 Our new band room still has lots of needs to make it function as best as it can. We need help from people who can
build or sew. Jake
Jacobsen
is coordinating this effort. 2009-2010 Band Yearbook Work will begin soon on the band
yearbook! We need your pictures of band
events. Please put your donations in the
small box on top of the lock box in the band room. The yearbook includes special
pages of siblings that are in band together and one for each of our Seniors
(The senior page pictures can be returned if you request). Senior Page deadline is April
1st, And all other photos need to be
submitted by the end of April. If you have any questions or are
