Announcements – Week of 12/7/2022

We made it! Marching season is now officially over for this year. We would like to thank everyone for helping to make this season so memorable and enjoyable! We are already starting to plan for next year and will be sending out information in a few short months. In the meantime, we still have plenty to keep us busy and a bit more time to enjoy our families, friends, and the holidays.

Information for this week includes:

Holiday Concert Info

Date: Thursday, December 8, 2022
Location: NHS Auditorium
Call Time: 7:00 pm in the band room for the students. The concert will begin at 7:30 pm.
Dress: Holiday sweaters and hats with dress slacks. A nice dress shirt will also be acceptable if a student doesn’t own a holiday sweater—No Jeans, t-shirts, or sneakers.

There is no admission charge for the concert, but we will be taking monetary donations for the Rock Hill Toys for Happiness campaign. Cash donations will certainly be accepted, but if you would like to write a check, please make it payable to the NHS Band Boosters, as we will then write one check from the booster club to the foundation.

Fruit Delivery:

The fruit is scheduled to arrive on Saturday, December 10, in the morning. I will be notified in the next day or two of the time the truck should arrive and will send out a message with that information. All students that sold fruit should be present to help unload the truck. If a student cannot attend, they should make arrangements for someone else to help and pick up their order for them. ALL ORDERS MUST BE PICKED UP ON SATURDAY MORNING – NO EXCEPTIONS.

Hawaii Information Meetings:

There will be two information meetings about the Hawaii trip approved for spring break 2024. They will be on Tuesday, January 10, and Thursday, January 12. Both meetings will start at 7:00 pm and will be in the Sullivan Middle School Auditorium. The same information will be presented at both meetings, so parents only need to attend one of the meetings. This information will include travel dates, a tentative itinerary, cost, and payment plan.

Area Band Concerts

  • Rawlinson Road Middle School – Tuesday, December 13 at 6:00 pm
  • Castle Heights Middle School – Tuesday, December 13 at 6:00 pm
  • Sullivan Middle School – Thursday, December 15 at 6:30 pm

Monthly Band Fee Payments

Remember to make your monthly band fee payment. You can pay with cash, check, or money order, place it in an envelope with your child’s name and the payment, and then have your child drop it by the band office. You can also deduct it from your child’s BCP account by filling out the form HERE. Another option is to pay it electronically directly to the school by clicking HERE.

Please let us know if you are any questions or concerns, and thank you again for all you do for our students.
