Congratulations to Mr. Tom Seeland

a successful musical year for our children.

.Congratulations to the
Schor School Jazz Band for scoring a superior in the Band Festival
in Rye, NY on June 6, 2002! The students performance was
superior and even the band parent chaperones had a good time,
sorta! Click here for
remarks overheard on the trip.

We'd like to extend a warm welcome
to all incoming 6th grade band students to Schor School! We hope
to see you all at the first BPA meeting in September. Look for the flyer we'll be sending home in September with the date of the meeting.

Thank you to all of the wonderful band students we've met through the years. We wish all of the luck, success, and happiness in the future to our graduating class. To the 7th, 6th, and incoming 5th graders, keep up the tradition of superior music at Schor Middle School! The Band Parents Association got off to a disorganized start last year, and needs strong leadership if it hopes to help promote the music program in Schor School. Sign up to be a band parent and take interest in what your child is doing in school, and you might find yourself making new friends and enjoying yourself as well. I know I enjoyed the time I spent with the student's families these past few years. Best of luck to whoever steps into our shoes - you will need it to keep pace with Mr. Seeland's habits of planning, forgetting about, then racing to get a trip planned at the last minute. Watching him rummage through his pockets for missing permission slips, cash, checks, and baby shower invitations was quite a learning experience. He really needs a personal secretary more than a Band Parent President! Thank you - Schor BPA (KKH, JV, etc)p> |
