One Week!

All the school supplies are on sale and the pool is not so crowded.  This can only mean one thing- school is just around the corner.  With just one week left till classes start, take a look at what's been boing on-

• 12 violins, 5 violas, 12 celli, 3 basses purchased (pick up 8/14)
• 2 cello racks and 1 bass rack constructed
• SJUSD repair budget has been secured
• All Big Band dance props and much of our other equipment has been moved out into a storage shed to make way for the new orchestra equipment
• All instruments are in the process of being cleaned, inspected & inventoried
• All music in the library in the process of being cataloged

So it doesn't seem like that many points, but it sure has been a significant investment of time, which will continue throughout the year.  If you are in need of community service time- I will have plenty of work to be done!

I will be on campus all week this week, including during registration/ orientation.  If you have any questions about scheduling or ensemble placement, please stop by and introduce yourself.  Also, if you can spare an hour, I could use your help getting ready for the first day.  I hope to meet many students and families before school starts.
