PMEA D1 - LATE MAY UPDATE

5/28/2020

 
Hello Everyone,

This is communication is rather lengthy. It contains quite a bit of information that may be relevant to members moving forward. Please take a moment to read through.

Our District 1 Beginning Band Roundtable was a great opportunity for directors across District 1 to be able to meet and dialogue about challenges and ideas for moving forward.  We had just over 30 attendees and there was some great discussion.  Special thanks to Aaron Booz and Ben Cook for their efforts in putting together this opportunity for members.

BEGINNING BAND IN A COVID-19 WORLD ROUND TABLE

5/21/2020

 
In an effort to share best practices navigating the times, PMEA D1 will be hosting a series of roundtables this summer via Zoom.  The aim is to keep a professional dialogue and interact with your colleagues facing the same challenges you are moving into the next school year.  Discussions will be guided and help initiate discussion relative to trends in our region.  

Tuesday, May 26 at 7:00 pm

To kick this effort off, Aaron Booz and Ben Cook will be hosting a roundtable discussion concerning all things Beginning Band.  Discussion topics will include tryouts, instruments distribution, recruitment and retention moving into the next year. Anyone interested can sign-up via the link below.  An invitation to the call will be sent the day before with the zoom meeting information.

Again, this is the first of several discussion we plan to coordinate through the summer months to help everyone in our district share ideas.

PORCH CONCERT!

5/1/2020

 
On behalf of the band faculty at Mt. Lebanon School District, I'd like to invite you to invite ALL of your band students to celebrate Moms, on Thursday evening, May 7th from 7:00-7:15 PM on your student's front porch. . . playing anything they want to play. We're putting this under the category "make a joyful noise."  

We'd like musicians from all over our region to take part in this event. Please video and post---we're all looking to show appreciation to all of our mothers, all the while promoting band students everywhere. A poster, below, is attached.  

Thanks for all that you do. Let's BAND together to raise some music for all our mothers!!!  

Sincerely,
Roger Tabler
