2010 - FBA BAND MUSIC PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT

Congratulations to everyone for two excellent performances at MPA. We had many people, including other band directors, compliment us on both of our band’s performances and we are very proud of the musical growth we have seen in our students so far this year. Our experiences on stage were very special and meaningful and learning the art of music is one of the most complicated processes in the human experience.  We would like to thank our chaperones for donating their time and helping to make this event a big success. We could not have done it without you!

Attention All Volunteers

School District policy requires all volunteers to be registered each year.  It is a simple process and will only take a few moments - but this online registration must be completed on site at Spanish River High School. Please visit the main office anytime during regular school hours to access their volunteer registration computer.  We will also have the computers available to us during parent meetings. If you are unable to register during school hours or at a band booster parent meeting, please contact Mr White to arrange a convenient time on practice days, etc.

All returning volunteers must re-register again for the current school year.  Please also be sure to periodically post your hours in the computer on campus so that the band program gets the recognition of all the valuable hours you contribute to our program.
