Have a wonderful week!

Knightmares – Oct 30
Parents, join us Wednesday, 10/30 at 7:30pm for KNIGHTMARES! This your chance to reenact your child’s role in “When I Wish”! Bring a fun substitute for your child’s instrument. You can even dress up if you want! We’ll meet in S Lot to practice at 7:30 and perform for the kids at 8:30. Don’t worry, accuracy is NOT required! The kids love it! After our performance, the kids will show us how it’s done! Have questions? Post them in the Band App. |
Holiday Spiritwear Sale
The Holiday Spiritwear Sale will be open from November 3rd-13th! We will have a limited number of items available to purchase for holiday delivery. Because marching band season will be over when the items arrive, the options are ship to home or PORCH PICK UP AT MY HOUSE (approx 5 min from NPHS) Please do not choose porch pickup if you are not willing to come get the items. More details to follow. |

Student Financials
All final payments were due Oct. 22. If you are one of the families that still owe fees, please, please, please submit these payments! If you don’t know if this is directed at you, please check your CUT TIME account. We only have 6 days until the end of the competition season and all accounts need to be paid in full by that last show. If your child is a senior, they must have a zero balance in order to receive their diploma at graduation. If you are participating in the volunteer initiative, I have posted all the volunteer credits. If you don’t see your credit, there are still volunteer hours that need to be completed. You also have time to get the 12 hours in to have your last payment waived.
Thanks,
Sue Mooney
