2025 M100 SUMMER BAND SCHEDULE – WEEK 3

This week, teachers will begin working in their classrooms and attending various professional development sessions throughout the day. This will prevent the band directors from supervising students in the band hall. On the days of the schedule below that say “BREAK UNTIL EVENING BLOCK/PEP RALLY”, students will need to be picked up due to lack of supervision in the band hall.

All 5:30pm evening blocks this week will begin IN THE BAND HALL! We will have a music rehearsal inside, then move outside later in the rehearsal.
