06-07 Band Info packet

The 2007-2008 TWHS Band Information Packet

Here is this season's band information packet filled with "everything" a band member and parent needs to know to make this year a season to remember. We have put all the information together on the website that we generally mail out at the beginning of the school year. This way, you can come back to it again and again instead of "Now where did I put that Band Packet? Uh Oh! I think it got thrown out......" Again, if you can't find what you're looking for, feel free to email any one of the Band Booster board members. We are eager to help!

"Students with coursework/experience in music performance scored 55 points higher on the verbal portion of the SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) and 38 points higher on the math portion of the SAT than students with no coursework or experience in the arts for a combined total of 93 points higher."

"There is a direct correlation between improved SAT scores and the length of time spent studying the arts. Those who studied the arts four or more years scored 66 points higher on verbal and 47 points higher on math portions of the SAT than students with no coursework or experience in the arts for a combined total of 113 points higher."
