We had a wonderful Virtual Band Camp tonight! It's going to be the best school year ever!

Virtual Summer Band Camp is tomorrow! This camp is for all the "wind" players (all but percussion). Students need to check the information in Google Classroom for Zoom links and times to join. Have your instrument and be ready to have some fun!

[Pike MS Band @director_forbis]

For remote learning, Mr. Forbis and Mrs. Haden have been busy creating online activities for our Panther Band students. We are also completing 6th Grade "virtual" instrument fittings through next week. It's going to be a great school year!

HEY BAND?!?

We hope everyone is staying "cool" during this heat wave! While you are hanging out inside, pull out your instrument and practice those "Pep tunes" and scales. We look forward to seeing you all for Summer Band Camp!
