Attention Yahoo Mail users, the spam filter Yahoo uses has been sending my emails to your spam folder.
You can create a filter that will send my email address to your inbox and that will fix this.
If not, please check your spam box for my emails.
There are too many emails now, and even though I have each band broken into several email lists, Yahoo still poses this problem.
I will post directions on how to create a filter that should fix this problem.
Thanks for your patience.

Hey all,
I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for the past few weeks. This is a very active program we are all involved in and it takes all of our efforts to keep it moving forward. That being said, we moved forward A LOT these past few weeks. Thanks to all the parents that flipped pancakes, sold tickets to babies, solicited finds, sold coffee, set up everything, and attended the performances. Also, thanks to all of the students that came out and served pancakes, played recitals, rock and jazz. These past few weeks have been absolutely amazing. Thanks for everything; we could not be this successful without all of you!
7. Indoor Color Guard - We have found a space to rehearse and we are in the process of setting up a schedule. Please bear with us as there is a lot of stuff going on right now. I will post a schedule as soon as we have one.
Update
1/26/10
The 3rd MP Lesson Schedule and the Lesson Groups are now posted.
Lessons do not start until Feb. 1st because I am a chaperone on the Model UN trip this weekend.
Please not that there are
a
few changes in Lesson Groups.
I have also updated my email lists.
If you are not receiving emails from me, it is either because I have never received an email address, typed it wrong from the beginning, or a change in email address.
If you would like to receive emails and are not, please send me an email at
klagos@glenridge.org
and I will add you to the list.
This is for parents and students.
On 1/26 at
3:00
I sent emails about the Lesson Schedules and about the Indoor Color Guard meeting tomorrow.
If you did not receive these emails, please first check your SPAM folder as there are a lot of people on these lists, to see if the emails are getting sent there.
If not, please send me an email and I’ll figure it out.
Thanks!

YAY!!! The email list is done. If you receive this and would like to add other emails or have emails removed from this list, simply reply and let me know what you would like. If you do not receive this, well, you won't know that you didn't so .......
I have attached the lesson schedule and lesson groups to the email I sent. Please check out the dates of the lessons and especially the exams. Students should be getting their practice sheets signed EVERY WEEK except for the week after exams. I give them a little break for those weeks. The first sheet is due at their next lesson starting Tuesday. The assignments are posted in the files section as well as a copy of this schedule and blank practice sheets. Please check out the website as there is a lot of helpful info. Thanks and I will see you all soon!

Greetings all and welcome to the 2009 7th & 8th Grade Concert Band! I have sent emails home to all 7th & 8th Grade Concert Band members.
This email list is very important to find out about events, HW, and other happenings in the band class. If you would like your email taken off this list or have another email address you would like to add to this list, please let me know and I will make sure to do so.
If you did not receive an email, please let me know and I will add you to the list.
If you have any questions throughout the year, please try to contact me through email. It is generally the easiest way to reach me. My voice mail extension is at the bottom as well. I do update it often. Anything posted on the voice mail, will also be on the web site and will generally be sent home in an email as well. Hope all have had a great start to the year.
I am certainly looking forward to it!
