Parents and Students,
Please email Mr. White at alexwhite@mcpss.com IMMEDIATELY if you need anything from the band room (instruments, flags, sheet music, shoes from your locker, etc.). After Monday April 6, no one (including Mr. White) will be allowed in the band room until Band Camp. The school year is not over so students will need instruments and equipment to do assignments for the 4th quarter. Students wanting to apply for leadership positions will need instruments and equipment to audition for those positions. Students with larger school-owned instruments like sousaphones and percussion need to email Mr. White regarding checking instruments out for the summer. Color guard will need to email Ms. Erdman at serdman@mcpss.com for details regarding checking out equipment. Please make sure you get your instruments so we can start preparing for next year and make sure we have a successful 2020 marching season. Check murphyband.com frequently for updates. Stay safe and wash your hands, Mr. White alexwhite@mcpss.com Hello all,
