MPA Week Info

Good Evening,

Here are some very important reminders for this week:

All permission slips for all Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Winds, and Symphonic Band students were due this past Monday.  If you need a copy of the permission slip, please email Ms. Cannon: charlene.cannon@ocps.net.  These were available at the Pre-MPA Concert last week, and every day in class since that evening.

We desperately need chaperones for this week.  Please let me know if you can help.

Here is the timeline for this week:

Tuesday, March 12:
Wind Ensemble performance for 5th grade families.  Students should be in the band room, in full uniform by 5:10pm.  The students will be dismissed at 6:00pm.

Thursday, March 14:
Wind Ensemble dress rehearsal (final rehearsal): 8:25-9:15am.  This is a required for all Wind Ensemble students.  These students received this information two weeks ago;  we will not be meeting in class due to other class's MPA performance, so this is very important.  ALSO - All students will need to bring their uniform in some sort of garment bag, labeled, to the morning practice.  If you are available, we'd like to have a couple of parents at this practice to check uniforms.

Symphonic Band Performance at MPA - 12:00pm
We will be leaving Bridgewater at 10:15am.  All students will need a bagged lunch.  We are still in need of 3 chaperones.  Please email me ASAP if you can help!  Students need to be in the band room, in full uniform by 9:30am.

Friday, March 15:

Symphonic Winds Performance at MPA - 12:00pm
We will be leaving Bridgewater at 10:15am.  All students will need a bagged lunch.  We are still in need of 5 chaperones.  Please email me ASAP if you can help! Students need to be in the band room, in full uniform by 9:30am.

Wind Ensemble Performance at MPA - 6:50pm
Students will meet in the band room to change at 3:15pm.  We will have dinner before we leave at about 4:15.  We should return by about 8:30pm.  We need about 6-7 more chaperones for this.  These students need to bring their uniform to school at the before-school practice Thursday (labeled).


All performances are at Oak Ridge High School; we'd love a big audience!

Please let me know if you have questions,
Mr. Antmann
