Hi Parents and Students,

I first would like to thank you for visiting our site. This is a great place to come if your child forgets what he or she is suppose to practice, or what our focus is for the week. I am sorry if you have visited the sited within the past nine weeks, and it wasn't updated. The site will be updated each week, and will provide you and your child with adequate information in regards to what is happening in the band room.

I would like to remind you to keep your child practicing his or her instrument daily. Your child should be practicing 5 nights a week, for 20 minutes each session. Don't forget to initial each practice, and sign-off at the end of the each week. This assignment is worth 100 points under homework assignments, and is checked each Monday. If your child does not turn in the log on Mondays, your child receives a zero for that assignment, and I will call home to inform you of the infraction.

The band shirts are in, and your child is free to wear it each Friday. Please make sure your child keeps the shirt in good condition, because we wear our shirts for each concert we perform.

***Please check here frequently for homework assignments, due dates, and important reminders. Parents, if you have any questions about band, feel free to e-mail me: JLCork@lpssonline.com or call the school 984-7462 Between 9:30-11:00***

Thanks,

Mr. Cork
