Letter from Mrs. Blackburn

BJ and All Band Parents,
 
I received  a projected band program budget for review.  Before it is approved I will get the School Board's input.  We are in the process of of limiting fundraiser at OLM School.  A letter campaign may not be possible at this time.  As I have explained to Mr. Humpal, band is important, however it is an extra-curricular activity.  Over the past several years, I have made it clear that we need to limit band performances to local events.  This cuts down on costs, but yet gives the students have the opportunity and experience to be a band member.  I will be having a meeting for all band parents on Wednesday, October 8 at 6:00pm in the auditorium to explain the goals of our OLM Band program.  Hopefully, this will clear up any misunderstandings or concerns you may have.  Please try to attend.
 
Thank you
Mrs. Blackburn
