We're almost a month into school and couldn't be happier with everyone's progress so far! Thank you to our families for continued patience and support with the exciting sounds from your student musicians.
Late/Missing Assignments: Per the syllabus, students can submit late assignments for full credit. However, Google Classroom does not notify teachers for work that is done late or resubmitted for a higher grade. We try to keep on top of those, but it is extremely helpful to email your teacher with a polite reminder to please check for the new submission so we're sure we don't miss anything. Hart Owned Instruments ALL students using an instrument from HART need to please fill out this Google Form ASAP. This applies to any 6th Graders who recently picked up a school owned instrument last week and all 7th/8th Graders continuing to use a school instrument for this school year. This is required to track all Hart inventory out of the building and to be sure families are aware of their responsibilities when using a school owned instrument. Repairs/Supplies Instruments in need of repair can be brought to Rochester High School on Tuesday nights from 6PM-8PM. There will be a couple of teachers there each week as well as a rep from A&G Central. If the teachers cannot do an onsite repair, A&G can take the instrument and bring it back the following week. Students in need of supplies who call and place an order by Monday evenings can pick those up from RHS on Tuesday nights as well. This is particularly helpful for those students in need of reeds! 6th Grade Band Books While not required as we do have access to SmartMusic, it is strongly recommended that all 6th Grade Band students have a hard copy of Sound Innovations Book 1 for their instrument as well as a music stand. We often use it as a workbook and it will take an extra step of complication out of things for them to work with a paper book rather than online music for now. Books can be ordered from any of our local music shops, and if it's ordered from A&G it can be picked up on Tuesday night at RHS.

Hi families! Nothing super new this week but a few things of note:
It was so lovely to see our students last week and we're excited to start learning with them!!! We understand that the last few weeks have likely been information overload for students and families. If you're seeking some of the information that's been shared recently, please see the links below. Also, any documents that are shared with students will always be added to the Important Documents tab on this website. The first assignment for ALL students is to review their syllabus and to complete the Google Form posted in Google Classroom.
