Band UPDATE for 1/9 - 1/15

1/8/2023

 
​We hope that our London trip participants are beginning to re-acclimate to our time zone and that you are recovering well from jet lag! The London Band App will remain active throughout the rest of the semester so you can share / download pictures and videos from the trip.
 
Our program hits the group running right from the start of the semester. Please review the information below regarding our upcoming performances and events.
 
Performance Schedule
All performances can be found on our Google Calendar. Below is a link to a printable list of dates to help with coordinating schedules. BVW Band Spring Performance Schedule
 
Basketball Pep Band
All band students participate in pep band during the Spring semester. Each member has 3 nights (which is 5 games – 1 single and 2 double headers.) Assignments can be adjusted as needed to accommodate other activity schedules, so long as those potential conflicts are discussed with Mr. Love well in advance – at least 2 weeks of the date. Pep Band Assignments can be found HERE.
Dates of our pep band performances can be found HERE.
 
Enrollment
In the coming weeks students will begin the process of selecting courses for the 2023-2024 school year. If students have questions regarding band placements or course offerings please visit with a director. We are happy to assist students in navigating the school schedule to ensure they can continue playing in band while pursuing a range of interests at West! Our enrollment brochure can be found HERE. It is primarily targeted towards rising 9th grade students, but the information applies to all.
