From Mr DeJoy
Hello All,
I can not believe today is the last full day for seniors. It is absolutely surreal and I’m sure many of you feel the same way. Below is the week at a glance and information on upcoming events.

The concert band has a dress rehearsal for the concert today, Monday, May 22nd from 6:00pm-8:00pm.
Spring Concert
The MHS Spring concert is on Wednesday, May 24th at 7:00pm at the MHS auditorium. Come check out our seniors’ last concert! Students should wear concert black and arrive by 6:15pm.
Memorial Day
All honors band students must attend the memorial day parade on Monday, May 29th. CP students are more than welcome to attend. Attire will be black pants, black shoes, and band polos (coming soon). Call time is 9am at North Common and the ceremony should conclude by about 11am on South Common. Winds must memorize the patriotic march and God Bless America. Percussionists must memorize patriotic march and the cadence.

Percussionists will have their instruments delivered to Xfinity. Senior band members will have their instrument taken care of by someone else.
Spring Training
Spring Training will take place in June of this year. We will also hold a few rehearsals in the summer prior to band camp. These rehearsals are mandatory for all who plan to do marching band in the fall. More info on spring training and band camp is attached here. If there are any conflicts regarding vacations, summer camps, etc. please let me know as soon as possible. Thank you!
Have a great week!
