Rogers Game Day Gathering 9/12
We are having our first Game Day Gathering before school on Thursday 9/12 featuring the Rogers Drumline, Drill, and Cheer. Only drumline will be performing, but we encourage all students to attend. Come on out and help these spirit groups get the school pumped up for the first football game of the season!!
Drumline will receive more info in class and on a separate email.
Practice Records and Objective Sheets
Consistent daily practice is vital to the success of your student on their instrument. We use weekly objectives to help students reach individual and group goals. Our objectives are passed off in person during class, sectionals and some in google classroom. While only one or two objectives are due each week, students are more than welcome to work at their own pace and turn in objectives early. Practice records are due each Tuesday with a parent signature.
Beginning Band students will receive their first practice record next week!
Private Lessons – Sign-up Now!!

We have a limited amount of financial aid for students throughout the school year. Parents will need to reapply each year to request consideration for private lesson financial aid, even if the student received financial aid from the previous year. We do this to help keep our records up to date and to ensure the need still remains. The application is available on the band website at www.rogersband.com/financial-aid-for-private-lessons . All completed applications should be sent directly to Mr. Ferman. If you have any questions about private
