This Week in Band! WT White Homecoming Parade

This week in Band!


Beginning students


Beginners are working on fundamentals!  Each beginning student is working hard to complete the following assignments in order to get to start taking their instrument home:

  • Turn in their instrument form and fee
  • Demonstrate they can assemble and disassemble their instrument properly and be able to explain the process
  • Produce a characteristic tone on the mouthpiece and the first 5 notes on the fully assembled instrument while maintaining proper hand position, posture and focus


Advanced Band


Advanced students have a parade Thursday. It will be at WT White High School. The parade kicks off around 4 and will be finished around 5. Pick up your student at WT White in the parking lot on the North East side of the building on Welch Road.  Here is a link to a map.
