8th Grade Band

Dear Students and Parents,

Welcome back to a new school year! This year we will perform with the High School Marching Band of Pride on Friday, October 11th at the varsity football game. The day will include a rehearsal and pizza party at G.H.S., performing at halftime and in the stands during that evening’s football game, and cookies after halftime. The evening is intended to give the 8th grade band a glimpse of what high school marching band is like and meet the students who will be in the band next year.

All 8th grade students will be dismissed after halftime during the third quarter. Students are encouraged to socialize with the Band of Pride in the south end zone and enjoy a snack during the band’s third quarter break. I have listed important times and information below to allow for a successful evening. If after reading this letter you still have questions, you may contact me at 548-3202 ext. 748 or bmckibben@greenville.k12.oh.us. I would also like to have four chaperones that evening. If you are interested please contact me as soon as possible. I’ll take the first four volunteers.

Sincerely,

Mr. McKibben
