Band – Percussion – Creative Movement is a co curricular class that also meets outside of school. These classes receive PE and Fine Arts Credits toward graduation. We are going to start our evening rehearsal schedule to fulfill our marching band and PE side of the class this week! All meetings are virtual through Labor Day. Student should find a place to work that is free from clutter either inside or outside the house. They need about a 8ft by 8ft space (bedroom with twin bed in it is fine). Students need to wear a comfortable tee-shirt or workout shirt, shorts (no jeans) and tennis shoes. They should have a water bottle handy for quick breaks.

Sincerely,

Christine Garcia
