Attention Wind Ensemble and Jazz Band Parents: The Seattle Trip is this weekend! Please read the updated Seattle Trip Itinerary and a Packing List attached to this e-mail. A map to the Auburn Performing Arts Center is also included. We are going to have a great trip!
IMPORTANT - ALL STUDENTS AND CHAPERONES MUST BRING A SACK DINNER TO EAT ON THE WAY TO SEATTLE ON FRIDAY. Contact Michelle Pavelek 503-581-0124 or Vickie Tuttle 503-588-0968 if you have any questions.
Build Your Student’s Personal Account with SCRIP!
SCRIP orders are a great way to build your student’s personal account. Place orders for SCRIP gift cards for the locations where you normally spend cash, such as the Regal movie theater, McMenamin’s, Safeway, and Walgreen’s. You get to spend every dollar you pay for, and a percentage of your purchase goes into the band general fund and into your student’s personal account. An order form is attached.
Booster Meetings – Mark the Calendar!
WSHS Booster meetings are held on the first Tuesdays of the month at 6:30 pm in the Band Room. See you April 7th at 6:30!
