Good evening, everyone! I've decided to give in to this cold I have and try to get better; therefore, I need to cancel grade 6 band for tomorrow morning (September 27) and grade 7 band for Tuesday morning (September 28). I should be able to talk and sing by Wednesday!!
Please spread the word to the other parents and students!
Thanks
Mrs. Power

Welcome Musicians and Parents!
Welcome back! I am looking forward to working with everyone this year. This blog will provide you with updated information about meetings, concerts, rehearsals, and special events. Athena will have the following music groups: 6-7 Band, 8-9 Band, 7-9 Vocal Ensemble, 7-9 Strings, and an elementary choir (not sure which grades yet, TBA). If you are new to the school, feel free to contact me about becoming a member of these fabulous groups!
Let's get it started!!!
BAND PARENT MEETING:
Thursday, September 16, 5:45pm, prior to Information Night, Athena music room.
The band students need your active support to ensure their musical success in band. We need parent volunteers to help manage the details of the organization. "Many hands make light work". We will be discussing expectations, rehearsals, attendance, instrument care, practise routines, uniforms, events, and fundraising.
See you Thursday!!
