Trojan Band Game 11/9 (Time TBD)
Our 8th grade football team made it to the next round of the playoffs! We are excited to support them this Saturday at the football game.
The time is still to be determined. When I receive the time from our Athletic Director, I will send out the schedule to you all.
Go Trojans! We cannot wait to be in Grisham Stadium this Saturday!
KSU Field Trip on Thursday (7th and 8th grade only)
Our 7th and 8th graders have their next field trip to KSU this Thursday, November 7th. If you have not already filled out the permission form, please do it ASAP.
KSU 7th/8th Grade Field Trip Form
Students who have sold one box of chocolate have earned half off and only owe $7.50 for their trip. Students who sold 2 boxes of chocolate have fundraised enough to have a free field trip! If your student did not sell a box of chocolates, they will owe $15. You may pay with cash, check (written out to CMS Band), or online under “payments” on our website. I typically encourage 8th graders to allow their chocolate money to go to Carowinds rather than this trip since that trip is pricier. Please let me know what your preference is.
Carowinds (8th grade only)
Downpayment is beyond due. Please let me know if you have any questions while creating your account.

Some of our band students have the opportunity to visit UWG’s campus in November! I have attached the jotform below to sign up.
