Orchestra Updates 8.29.25

Goebena Coffee Fundraiser: 

The Goebena Coffee fundraiser is now available for all students participating in the NYC trip. Order forms were distributed Friday in class. This is a great opportunity to help offset trip costs, so please encourage your student to participate.

 

Uniforms: 

All uniforms should have come home by today. Parents, please make sure your student tries on their uniform and and you double check the fit. If something does not fit correctly, I need to know as soon as possible so we can arrange an exchange. Refer to the orchestra syllabus for hemming instructions.


Syllabus and Info Survey Homework: 

Students have now received the orchestra syllabus homework and an information survey. These assignments are due by Friday, September 5. Parents, please also check your Infinite Campus a message with “parent homework” related to the syllabus review and acknowledgment. 


NOPA:

Don't forget that our first NCHS Orchestra Parents Association meeting will be Tuesday, September 16th at 6:30 pm in the orchestra room (rm 50). This is open to all orchestra parents and we would really love to see you as we work together to support our young musicians. It's a great way to get involved in your student's life without the embarrassment of chaperoning a dance... ;-)
