Thank you from Michelle and me for everyone who participated in our silent auction to those who helped clean up afterwards. The janitorial staff was very appreciative of our help with the tables and chairs.

Dear Band Family, I hope to see everyone at the HC Band Pops Concert this evening in the Gym at 6:00 PM! Should be a great end of the year event! Please remember the tables in the middle of the floor have all been reserved and assigned for this evening.
Just a few brief reminders for the week for band members:
1.) Please turn in band finals as soon as you are able unless in a percussion class (playing “live”).
2.) We need ALL Marching Band Commitment Contracts by June 1st. Current high school students should turn these in by Thursday before school lets out. I am basing the drill numbers for the show on submitted contracts.
Thanks to all for a wonderful year full of enthusiasm and growth for the HC Band program! Seniors and families, BEST wishes for a bright future!
Sincerely, Bill Kite Director of Bands Henry Clay High School

Dear Wind Ensemble, We were asked to perform for a presentation by some Naval officers tomorrow during 2nd and 3rd hours. Mr. Nochta approved our performance. I realize there are a few that need to finish major class projects, etc. and have already spoken with those students.
For those performing, please wear ALL BLACK professional attire for our performances tomorrow during school. We will perform Eternal Father Strong to Save (Navy Hymn) and Glory of the Yankee Navy March by John Philip Sousa at the beginning of 2nd and 3rd hour in the cafeteria over by the connector closest to the football field. If students are able to get out of the end of 1st hour to help set up that would be great, but only do so if the teacher is OK with it.
Thanks to all students for being willing to perform for these special presentations on such short notice. It is a true testament to your commitment and dedication and professionalism.
Thanks again. Sincerely, Bill Kite Director of Bands Henry Clay High School
Dear HC Band Family, See link below for the Pops Concert Itinerary for your review for next Monday, May 21. Please review all details carefully as it is a great evening, but requires attention to detail in the set up, transitions, break down, etc.
We are looking forward to a wonderful evening of music, food, and fellowship!
Thanks to all for an amazing night at the Banquet on Monday! Special thanks to senior students and parents on your immeasurable contribution to our program over the years! You will be missed!
Sincerely, Bill Kite william.kite@fayette.kyschools.us Director of Bands Henry Clay High School
Dear Band Family, Just a reminder that students have had all band final exam assignments for quite a while thanks to Mr. Bayerle’s effort. Please be sure students are working on these assignments over the next week or so as all Band Final Exams are due by the end of the scheduled class exam time based upon the school final exam schedule below.
In many cases, students must submit a recording and paper to us. We prefer recordings be sent either through Charms or electronically, but we will accept other methods as well. For those who need to record at school, Mr. Bayerle has had a sign up schedule on his door for weeks that currently has one student listed on it. Please be responsible and do NOT wait until the last minute as times are based on “first come first serve” as students sign up. In addition, please submit papers to us electronically whenever possible.
If seniors wish to use final exam exemptions, we MUST have those by next Thursday, May 17.
