Band Newsletter, Week 1.6

Hello Frisco Band Family,

Click Here for our Newsletter for this week, “Week 1.6” Highlights are below.

PARENTS, we want to alert you to a couple urgent messages:

1) UIL eligibility cut-off is this Friday- any student who has a grade below 70 in ANY class will not be able to perform with us for nearly the remainder of the 2021 marching band season. Currently we have over 35% of the organization below this line- a catastrophic blow to our ability to compete if this holds. Please, work with your student to ensure they are doing all they can this week to achieve passing in all classes.

2) We are also at a critical juncture with the construction of our props- help is NEEDED to complete the project. Click here to sign up, and please see the attached newsletter for more info- we appreciate all parents taking a moment to read the first section in the attachment.

Also contained in the newsletter:

• Play-A-Thon Wrap-Up
