Practice reminder and ONE CHANGE for 8th Grade
Sorry to have to make a change in the first week, but for THIS WEEK ONLY, the 8th grade practice will be moved to Friday morning from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. All other practice days and times will remain the same...Tuesday morning for 9th and 12th grade, and Thursday morning for 10th and 11th grade. All practices are from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
Thank you for your patience as we make everything work! We are looking forward to seeing our freshmen and seniors tomorrow!
BAND PRACTICE FOLLOWUP
To clarify: The June and July practices work just like strength and conditioning for athletics. If students are out of town for any of these, that’s ok! The August rehearsals are mandatory, as always. Let us know if you have questions!
BAND PRACTICES START NEXT WEEK
We all wish our school year hadn’t been cut short, but due to those circumstances, UIL has released guidance for offering marching band practices in June and July this summer. This is not an opportunity we normally have, so let's make the most of it!
Practices begin next week on the band practice field by the facility. These practices will take place weekly from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on the days listed below. These weekly practices will be divided into the following groups:
Tuesdays: 9th and 12th grade
Wednesdays: 8th grade
Thursdays: 10th and 11th grade
**NOTE: The only week these practices will not be offered is July 13-17.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS FOR BAND PRACTICES
--All students must have a physical on file with Sundown ISD. If you had one for the 2019-2020 school year, you may come to the practices in June and July. If not, you will need to have one before attending and bring the paperwork with you.
--For now, all practices will take place on the band practice field by the facility. We will not be practicing with instruments until further notice, so students should not need to enter the building. However, if a student would like to take an instrument home to practice, let me know and I will bring it out to the practice field.
--Hand sanitizer will be available.
--Social distancing will be observed during practices as students will be 15 feet apart, exceeding the distance recommended by UIL.
--As recommended by UIL, we will not provide water, food, sunscreen, or other items. Students will need to bring their own water...hydration is important! Sunscreen is also recommended.
--Masks and gloves will be available, or students are welcome to bring their own.
--Students who are not feeling well should not attempt to practice. If a student is experiencing any of the following symptoms, he/she will need to stay home: Fever, shortness of breath, headache, sore throat, diarrhea, chills, shakes, loss of taste or smell, cough
--Students will be pre-screened before they are allowed to practice.
**Side note: For those who like to plan ahead, our usual Summer Band rehearsals will begin on Monday, August 3rd. As always, these rehearsals are mandatory. We will send out more information in July with specifics on these rehearsals.
Thanks for reading this long post! We're excited to have all of this information to share and look forward to seeing everyone soon.
DRUM MAJOR INFO
This message is for students interested in auditioning to be a Drum Major for the 2020 Roughneck Band.

COLOR GUARD INFO
I hope you are having a wonderful summer! This message is to relay information regarding the process for selecting Color Guard members for the 2020 Roughneck Band. Any student going into grades 9-12 may audition. Students who plan to audition should let me know so that we can have a flag ready for you on the pickup day...email me at jmauldin@sundownisd.com. Due to the current situation, we are handling this process differently this time around. If a student wants to audition and will be out of town on any of these dates, communication is key!
The practice schedule will be as follows:
Tuesday, June 16th (THIS coming Tuesday): Pick up flags at the school between 6:15 pm and 7:15 pm (enter the building on the south side at the doors by the pool)

Sundown ISD has partnered with the City of Sundown in an effort to get maximum participation in the 2020 Census. The census is important in terms of state and federal funding for our county, city, and school. For each student/family that completes the census you will receive a confirmation code. If you complete the census and e-mail the confirmation code to your campus principal your student(s) will be entered into a drawing for a $100 Wal-Mart gift card. One code per family will cover all your kids if you get the code to their principal. If you have a kid on each campus, email all 3 campus principals that code and in theory you could win 3 different $100 Wal-Mart gift cards. If you have 3 kids on one campus then all 3 of them would be entered in the drawing with 1 code. There is no penalty for anyone who doesn’t complete the census, but we feel it is very important that Sundown be reflected accurately in this 2020 census.
Please visit https://2020census.gov/ to complete the survey. Codes need to be to the campus principals by 3:00 on May 19th. On May 20th we will have a facebook live drawing for the gift cards. If you have any questions feel free to call the school.
FRIDAY, MAY 8th - BIRTHDAY
