Booster Club Meeting – April 5th
The next booster club meeting is scheduled for Thursday, April 5th. The Executive Board meeting will be at 6:00, general meeting at 7:00 and then Mr. Hejny will go directly into the mandatory trip meeting. Everyone mark your calendars!
SPRING BAND TRIP MEETING – APRIL 5TH
Each year, before our spring trip, AISD requires us to have a Mandatory Meeting of ALL Parents and Students that will go on the Band Trip. At this meeting, we will update medical information (bring insurance cards if it has changed since Marching Season) fill our Prescription Drug Info. (bring names of ALL Rx medication your child will need to take on the trip) and sign other documents required by AISD.
All Parents and Students will receive an Itinerary and other important trip info you will need to get ready for the Trip. We will also go over all rules and regulations and have you sign off that you and your child are aware of all AISD policies and AHS Band Trip policies.
The meeting will be in the AHS Auditorium on April 5th at 7:00 pm!!!
It will be a very fun and informative meeting…..and it is REQUIRED! If you do not attend, your child will NOT be able to go on the trip! Also, be sure your trip is paid in full by the meeting. If you have an outstanding balance it MUST be taken care of at the meeting.
Thank you
Michael Hejny

AHS Band Calendar
We get asked a lot for the calendar and while all of the dates are being entered in to the system you will find that the attached pdf will do the trick, or simply go to the Documents page and download it at any time.
Colt Band Handbook
Where to go, what to do, when to do it and what not to do.
That’s what the handbook is for and it is worth a read.
If you want to print out a copy a pdf will be attached to this article and you can download it or you can get it anytime from the Documents Section on the site.
Summer Heat
Dear Parents and Students,
Summer Practice is always tough on kids….especially if they have been sitting inside in the AC playing video games for the last several weeks.
I am attaching a VERY IMPORTANT how to beat the heat guide so we all stay healthy and happy in the days to come!
Thank you for your time!
