Band Payments for 2017-2018 school year

Parents,

Greetings!

The school is transitioning to a new system of accounting for the band program, and they ask to you all to not use SCHOOL PAY or CHARMS until after they close the books on FY2017, and the fee is set up in the new system. You are still welcome to send a check in to the school for the fee of $150 made payable to: HAYFIELD SECONDARY SCHOOL. 

Thank you.

Band Director

Spring Trip Help Needed - SignUpGenius Link attached

Parents of band students participating on the Orlando trip,

 I wanted to give you a heads up on our departure plans for our Orlando trip.

 

As you know, The high school band, choir and orchestra are leaving April 19 and returning April 23.

We will leave Wednesday night about 6pm. We will return Sunday around 3pm.

 

On Tuesday night, April 18^th, we will have a big meeting and  take kids luggage. We will keep the luggage that night and have the parents search the luggage.

Those parents will load the luggage so the kids won't have access to it before we leave.

 

Then at about 5:30pm on Wednesday, we will have the kids go through the middle school lecture room to have their on-bus back pack searched, just like at the airport, again by parents. Then , they get right on the bus, and we're off by 6pm.

 

So, we need parents to help us out.

1)     Can you spare time on Tuesday night to help search luggage?

2)    Can you spare time on Wednesday helping to load luggage, and search back packs?

 

Please let us know for any or all activities. Many hands make for light work!

 

Thanks.
