Band Concert Wednesday 10/12
All of the students in first, second, and sixth period band classes, as well as many 7th period percussion students will be performing along with Kastner Bands on Wednesday October 12th in Concert at the Paul Shaghoian Concert Hall on the Clovis North Campus. Performing students should arrive at the concert hall no later than 6:30pm. We will open the concert hall to audience members as soon as Kastner groups have finished their sound check.
Cookie Dough Fundraiser
All students are currently participating in a cookie dough fundraiser. The funds and orders from this fundraiser are due Friday 9/30 (TOMORROW!). All proceeds from this fundraiser will be split between student trip credit and funding the program(s) they participate in. Feel free to purchase from your students, but we are going to emphasize reaching out to people outside of the home for this fundraiser. We have been extremely successful with this fundraiser in the past and hope to continue to help our students fund the experiences and opportunities that enrich their education. We expect delivery sometime toward the end of October and will communicate an exact date when we have it.
Marching Band Senior Night 9/30 at Lamonica Stadium
Saturday September 30th (tomorrow) our Marching Band seniors and parents will be recognized prior to the start of the game. Senior parents/guardians are limited to three people at most per student and should meet us at the Northwest corner of the stadium at 5:45pm to line up for recognition. Each senior will be introduced and photographed with their parents and/or guardians.
CWAIM Handbook
Our 2022-2023 handbook is available online by visiting bit.ly/CWAIMHandbook2022. Please visit this link and read up on our policies and procedures. Students were provided a signature form last week, but if you didn’t receive it you may download a digital copy by visiting this link or printing the attached file. If you need a hard copy of either of these please have your student ask in class. Thanks!
