Monday & Tuesday Band Registration

One last reminder about our Band Registration happening in the Belton MS Band Hall this Monday and Tuesday from 8am-4pm (come-and-go). Park in the staff parking lot and come in through the side Cafeteria entrance and follow the arrow signs inside. If you are unfamiliar with the building, click on this link for the map: https://bit.ly/beltonmsbandmap

Please bring your band student and one parent/guardian to go through the registration stations, which should take about 30-45 minutes to complete. Be sure to bring their instrument and any and all purchased supplies with them. Older students should bring their summer checkout instruments with them in order to update our inventory.

This Registration allows parents to fill out all of the required paperwork, get your student a band locker, meet the directors, and get prepared for a great start to the school year. That way, the directors can start teaching on the first day of school!

If you will not be in town during these 2 days, be sure to email so Mr. Pulley can send you the Registration Checklist for you to fill out online on your own. Completed registration checklists and all instruments, supplies, and materials are due on Thursday, August 18 (the second day of school).

Thank you to those of you older students and parents who have volunteered to help at this Registration. I will be sending another email about your responsibilies soon.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone next week!

Getting Ready for Band

By now, you should have received a band welcome packet personalized for your son or daughter outlining some important information, such as supplies and materials, Band Registration, and contact information.  Please email Mr. Pulley if you did not receive this message.  Remember that all listed supplies and materials are due by the second day of school next year, which will be Thursday, August 18.  We suggest you start to purchase the needed supplies now because there will be delays if you wait too long, plus you can spread out buying these items over the summer to make it more affordable.  If you need more information, be sure to check out the Supplies & Materials page of our website here: beltonmsband.org/supplies-materials

Next, make plans to attend our Band Registration on Monday & Tuesday, August 1 & 2 in the Belton MS Band Hall from 8am-4pm (come-and-go).  This will allow you to fill out all of the required paperwork at the same time, get your student a locker, and meet the directors and see the facilities face-to-face to be prepared for school to start.  If you will not be in town during that time, be sure to email Mr. Pulley (crpulley@beltonmsband.org) in July so he can send you an online registration checklist.  

Also, be sure to mark Thursday, August 11 down on your calendar for our New Parent Meeting from 5:30-6:30pm in the Belton MS Band Hall.  There you will learn the inner workings of our program, director expectations, and answer any and all questions you have to help your child be successful in Band!

Lastly, if you find yourself confused this summer about anything related to Band, be sure to reach out via email or phone/text at 254-226-6179.  Have a great summer!
