We would like to get all directors signed up for Remind 101 so we can reach everyone through text messages quickly if needed.

This helps us with last minute reminders of deadlines or if an emergency should happen, etc.

Please sign up using these instructions. Then remember to make a Remind 101 group for your program so that you can quickly get a hold of parents for weather cancellations or other necessary reminders!

Rock and roll music,

you like it, you feel it, you can’t help but move to it.

That’s what happens to me.

I can’t help it.
