Legacy of Champions, the Gold Standard!

What a wonderful weekend! Even during our fall break our students rehearsed diligently and performed energetically at the home game on Friday night. Our Trojans were victorious over Woodland maintaining our undefeated record and our band students and parents returned on Saturday to show the band community authentic Carrollton hospitality. Our Legacy of Champions Marching Competition continued its storied reputation through the compassionate work of our parent and student volunteers. Numerous directors and parents shared positive feedback after their experience on Saturday. It takes our entire village to make the LoC special, thank you all for spending your day with us to make this year a success! Special thanks to our LoC Coordinators: Michael Post, Michele Mullenix, Bob Noah, Melanie Noah, Meredith Harris, Tonya Pittman, Sunday Richie, Eric Pittman, Maria Menendez, Jeff Jones, Nicole Jones, Jason Svegl, Kelly Hansen, and Rachel Tate for the consistent leadership that you provided in planning the event. Our village is a special place because of our parents’ willingness to work together for our children. Saturday was special because of all of you! Thank you!

HEALTH CLASS

Students participating in the health class should be completed with the eADAP course from the GA Department of Drivers Services. Please double check with your child to verify that they have completed that course and submitted a certificate to me either in person or a PDF via email. This is the most important aspect of the class as it qualifies our students to apply for their drivers license. Once they have finished the eADAP course online, then they complete the 9 Unit exams via Google Classroom and they are done. Due dates are listed in Classroom to allow students to complete the class before their semester becomes too hectic. I will be lenient with the due dates so long as all coursework is completed and turned in by the Thanksgiving Break. Thank you for your assistance in keeping your child on track.

HAVE YOU SYNCED YOUR CALENDAR?

The Charms Calendar is syncing again. Syncing your calendar with the band calendar is a great way to stay informed of the schedule. You can access more information through the links above (If you hover over Calendar, Sync Calendar becomes an option), or just click here.
