Important Information for this school year
Music education isn't a frill. It is important. We are going to continue teaching Concert Band this year, even though it will be delivered in a different format.
We will still be doing scales, rhythm and pitch reading, terms, and other basic things that will get us to become better musicians. But we will also be using software that will allow us to collaborate with each other to create duets and other small ensembles. You will have many performance opportunities that we can share with each other.
Students who are opting for full distance learning for the entire school year are still eligible to have their instruments and play with us! Just e-mail me at waipahuhsband@gmail.com so I can include you in a Google Classroom period. To clarify:
Let's stay excited about our music education. When things get back to normal, we can jump back onboard quickly! Mahalo.

- You will be disenrolled from band upon declaring yourself a full distance learning student.
- You need to e-mail Mr. Fu at waipahuhsband@gmail.com saying that you want to take band outside of your classes.
- You will be sent a contract saying that you will take care of your instrument, participate in the classes, etc.
- You return the contract to me (digitally, by taking a picture of it).
- You pay your instrument fee.
- You pick up your instrument at the designated time and fill out all the paperwork. Take care of your instrument!
- Fully participate in our program's assignments and projects.
- Enjoy being a part of our band program!
