Edline reports went out on Friday. Everyone is doing exceptional in all competencies - bravo!
Just a friendly reminder that practice logs are due tomorrow as well as ensemble critiques for the AHS v. Souhegan game. I have started to read and write my own comments on the ensemble critiques from the Londonderry game. Hopefully, I will be returning many of them by the end of this week.
The band and colorguard's next 2 performances are October 5 (AHS v.Conval) and the Salem Band Show on October 6. Below is the information that was mailed out this past Friday (9/21).

Speaking of holiday shopping - if you enjoy shopping on line please remember to go through our portal http://www.shopahsfom.com.
I have been asked about the "official" band photo. I will be meeting this week with Mr. Mata to discuss possible dates. I may use the Salem Band Show rehearsal time (much to my chagrin) but we need to get the "official" band photo done so come back to the AHSMUSIC. org website for more up to date details.
Looking forward to another great week! Hey, Jazz Band members you have an assignment due on Wednesday 9/26 make certain you check your Edline.
