Band Instruments
June 15, 2020
Hello parents!
I hope this message finds you doing well! I do want to apologies for the delay in sending this out, but we had to figure out the logistic of it all. We will be holding a drive-up check-in for band instrument and other school supplies (Chromebooks, calculators, athletic equipment, etc...) on June 22-24, 2020 from 9:00 am to 11:00 am at the front of our school. We will follow the following:
This pick up of instruments/equipment will be only for 8th graders going to the high school this upcoming school year and/or if your son/daughter will be transferring or moving to another school/city. For everyone else, students will hold on to their instruments until this upcoming school year. In order for this to be safe for everyone, we need your help parents.
Could you please ask the kids to clean and disinfect their equipment prior to dropping it off on the correspondent date. Regarding band instruments, please remind your son/daughter to wash/clean (depending whether their instrument is a brass or woodwind instrument) at home before dropping it off. For woodwind instruments, please use alcohol wipes to clean and disinfect the inside of the instrument and pads. For clarinet and saxes mouthpieces, please wash with soap and water. Brass instruments, please use soap and water to clean your entire instrument (bath). All students have been told how to do this for their particular instrument. Please do not use chlorox and/or any other type of cleaning chemical for which it will damage the instrument.
Once the instrument is clean, please place it inside its case and do not open it again. So we could keep the instrument disinfected. If there is anything wrong with the instrument, please tape a note on the outside of the case mentioning if anything needs to be repaired. Once the instrument is checked-in, I will be cross referencing the serial number of the instrument with my records and if everything matches, the student will be cleared from my end.
If anyone has any questions, please do not hesitate in reaching out to me thru email (chrodriguez@canutillo-isd.org) or thru Remind. I really wish we could have finished this school year like we normally would, but I am certain that we will return to normal soon. Enjoy your summer and stay safe. To all of my students, I love you and miss you all! God Bless you all!
