Announcements:

    • Welcome to the class of 2020 "Marching Pioneers" to our email list! You will receive an email once a week (typically on Sunday's) when band is in season. Remember these announcements are also posted on the website at http://gchsmarchingpioneers.org if you ever miss an email.

    • Congrats once again to the class of 2016! Thanks to all who came out this past Friday night in support of them. A lot students were announced as receiving band scholarships. Stick with it and band will pay for itself!

    • This Friday and next Monday we have underclassmen finals exams. Friday is 2nd and 4th block exams and Monday is 1st and 3rd block exams! Be sure your student is prepared. There is NOT a final exam for concert band!

    • Next Monday is a 1/2 day of school! No meals in the cafeteria will be served.

    • All section leaders will meet at 1:00 pm NEXT MONDAY to prepare "Summer Mail outs" for students in band (grades 10-12) for next year. You should receive this important information by Friday (May 27th). Contact me via email if you do not. Section leaders need to contact one of the band captains if they are not able to attend and get someone from within their section to take their place.

    • Reports cards will be mailed out on Tuesday. Remember any student owing a debt will not receive his/her report card and will not be able to attend the first June rehearsal until the debt has been paid in full!
