What to bring to rehearsals

Most importantly - we need parent volunteers!
The Band & Strings Ensemble Committee is run by parent volunteers. WIthout their support and dedication - there would be no band!
We request each group has a parent helper. The role of the parent helper includes:
- Liaise with Teachers, Conductors and committee members
- Communicate to parents regarding performances, rosters, rehearsals and other general information. To provide assistance to the conductor during rehearsals, send emails about the homework and any specific directions from conductor to the parents.
- Ensure that a supervisor attends each rehearsal. We request that a parent is present at each rehearsal.
Please email khpsband@gmail.com if you can be a part of the team. We are requiring 2 parent volunteers to support Concert Band Band in 2024.
