Welcome Back!

Welcome Back Students! Mr. Yost and I are excited to begin a new semester and are looking forward to making music with all of you this winter and spring. We are looking forward to seeing many of you again and are excited to be adding a few new folks to the band too!

Here are a few quick reminders as we gear up for the semester:

Canvas Courses for all of the second semester band classes are now available in Canvas. Parents, please make sure you have an observer account to track your student’s progress throughout the semester. Items of note that will be reviewed in detail on Monday include:

Spring Band Syllabus

Spring Semester Band Calendar

Honors Requirements (for students enrolled in Symphonic Honors)

Students, will you need your instrument on Monday?

9th Grade Instrumental Ensemble/Concert Band – NO, we will start playing on Tuesday.

Symphonic Band/Symphonic – YES, we will start playing on Monday.

Parents: Our first band booster meeting of the new year is Monday, January 8, 2018 at 7PM in the NHS Band Room. Please make plans to attend.

🎺 MEET THE STAFF

Summer rehearsals begin Tuesday, July 8 from 9am-12pm, and we couldn’t be more excited to get started! To help prepare us all for the season ahead, we want to introduce you to our incredible instructional staff who make it all possible.

🎺 NORTHWESTERN HIGH SCHOOL BAND DIRECTORS: Daniel Gulledge, Scot McGuire
Meet your high school band directors! Mr. Gulledge is joining our staff this year from his previous position as band director at Indian Land High School. He is an incredibly gifted educator with an eye for design and a knack for nurturing young people. Alongside Mr. McGuire, they lead the charge at Northwestern—designing shows, running rehearsals, and guiding students to be their very best on and off the field. Their vision and dedication keep the entire program thriving. We can’t wait to start this season under their leadership.
