Welcome to the home of the Standard Middle School Bands

Welcome page last updated 7/28/10


 Did you know? After this week (starting 7/26) there are only THREE weeks of summer vacation left??

(and THREE more weeks of classes (after 7/27) for Mr W before he is completely done!!!)

7/28 Lessons UPDATE: Our trumpet section is leading the way, by far, with SIX members taking lessons. In the biggest section of the band, clarinets, there are now  five clarinets who have taken at least one lesson. Five out of over 20 is a little better!  Flute section has 4 that I know of, plus 2 "maybees".  Low Brass has ONE, with 1 more possibles. Percussion has one and Sax also has one that I know of.    It is frustrating to have a such a big band and have so few taking lessons, even when lessons are FREE!!!  No, it is not too late to start! Do it today!!!!

Some people are like Slinky's. They're not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
 
Another thought I picked up visiting Hancock Shaker Village in MA ....
Do all the good you can
In all the ways you can
To all the people you can
In every place you can
At all the times you can
As long as you can
