Gladiators let me be the first to welcome all of you back to the new school year! Although it's great and exciting to have all of our students back in our schools. Please stay safe! There is a mask mandate in dade county for all indoor activities, masks are optional for OUTDOOR activities ONLY. On that note, admin will go over COVID protocols and how it may impact our learning environment throughout the year. However, as Gladiators I know that we are all very resilient and we will push through any hurdles throughout the school year.
Friendly reminder that the marching band will be performing the first day of school, we must all meet in the band room at 06:15 AM. This week is a busy week for us. We have rehearsals Monday and Wednesday (03:00 - 07:00 PM), sectionals on Tuesday (02:45 - 04:45 PM), and our first football game on Thursday (03:30 - 07:00 PM).

If you don't pay for these fees unfortunately you will not receive all the necessary marching band accessories (marching shoes, gloves, etc.). The fundraiser only pays for your fair share. That is why it is imperative that you pay for these fees if it applies to you! The fundraiser ends on Saturday 28 August lets push to the finish line we are past the halfway point towards our goal. Lastly, we need everyone to turn in their media release, consent and liability, and the competition contracts. Jade, your Band Secretary, is in charge of collecting all those forms. If you have any questions about that please direct them towards her. Go to sleep early I'll see every one at 06:15 AM tomorrow!
