NEW BAND REMIND TEXTS - posted 08/02/19
The Remind text message system has gone through some big changes this summer and we have had to change how we use the app.  Groups now have limited numbers of participants so we now have 8 different Remind groups.  Please ONLY signup for the group that applies to you. Marching Band Members may sign-up for the marching band group and a band class group.  Students, please do not sign-up for the "Parents" groups and parents, please do not sign-up for the "Band Member" groups. This will ensure that everyone gets signed-up.  To begin receiving Band Remind messages, text the following codes to 81010.
