8th Grade Parents
Hi Upcoming Hebron High School Band Parents -
We are so excited to welcome you and your student to the Hebron High School Band. Part of the strength of our organization comes from the help we get from band parents like you. Volunteering for the Hebron Band is a great way to meet other parents and to feel involved in the amazing experience your student is about to have.
We are asking all Hebron Band parents to complete this survey that asks for your interest in various board, committee, and volunteer positions. Many of these positions do not require much time or experience. Would you please complete this interest survey as soon as possible?
https://forms.gle/UybDGem67WXNBhAt8
If you have any questions about a position or anything related to the survey, please reach out to us at nomcom@hebronband.org We look forward to meeting you soon!

Accompanist Rehearsals
Rehearsals begin this week! They are all during the students' class time, but just in case, here is the link to their rehearsal times.
Please note that the scheduling is super tight - if someone misses their session, even if not in school that day, it cannot be made up as there is no time in the schedule to do so.
Solo & Ensemble
THE CONTEST WILL NOW BE HELD AT KILLIAN INSTEAD OF CREEK VALLEY!!!!
All Symphonic Band students will be playing solos and ensembles at the LISD Solo Contest at KILLIAN on May 3rd.
Attached, you will find the handout with your performance times. Please note that this is a tightly scheduled contest and that you need to be early to your performance time, warmed-up. At this point, we are unable to make any scheduling changes.
