Calendar - Performances in RED on website, and lighter gray on handbook.

All Make-up playing tests after school on Monday or Thursdays.

All Make ups  must be completed by October 31. 

This will be an inconvenience if you bomb the scale testing; Halloween is the ONLY make up date for the scales.

Please study accordingly.  No one will be allowed to do that test at home, it MUST be done at school in class.
