Band Update 7/21/20
Parents, I have been asked by our administration to keep students at home for the rest of this week in order to safely implement our new guidelines for summer band camp.
A few important things: all students will be checked for their temperature as they come inside, and all students MUST wear a mask on campus. The school does not have any facial coverings to give out to students on campus right now. We will be spreading out like usual, but indoor activity requires a mask to be worn. We now have a contactless thermometer to check students for fever.
With the cloudy vision of even the near future, I will be working to ensure we are following our school system’s guidelines on continuing marching band activity. I need all parents and students to make sure they have turned in their COVID 19 Consent form before band camp starts (which has already been given to the colorguard and percussion). It is found on the band website in the Parent Information section. (https://www.theodoreband.com/parent-information.html). I have also attached it to this email. It can be filled out and signed and submitted back to me via scan/photo/email/in person.
I apologize for the recent instability in schedule, but our school wants to make sure we can continue under proper circumstances. I am still planning on having our band camp next week. If you have any concerns about your child’s wellbeing, please notify me and keep them home. I will reserve their spot.
Thank you,
Ben Ivey
