Hello Andrew Band Students and families!
If your student is playing the clarinet or the saxophone in band this school year, they will need reeds. These reeds are an extra cost, but they are needed in order to play the instrument. If this is something that you have questions about or want to discuss further with me, please contact me! Otherwise, I would love to give you a direct Amazon link to purchase reeds for your student. Clarinet Reeds: Please choose the option "Strength 2.0" and then you can choose how many you can buy at a time. I recommend choosing the "10-pack" option so they will have plenty to start! If you do not want to order from Amazon, some brands I recommend are Rico, Accent, and Vandoren. Make sure that you are buying reeds for a "Bb (B-Flat) Clarinet!"

Saxophone Reeds: Please choose the option "Strength 2.0" and then you can choose how many you can buy at a time. I recommend choosing the "10-pack" option so they will have plenty to start! If you do not want to order from Amazon, some brands I recommend are Rico, Accent, and Vandoren. Make sure that you are buying reeds for an "Eb (E-Flat) Alto Saxophone!"

Andrew Families,
The phones have been fixed so you can call the office now. We are still trying to reconnect our Facebook page and will hopefully get that issue fixed by the end of the day. Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. If you have any questions about upcoming events, you can always call the office at 563.672.3221.
LEAP will be staying at school today.
Families,
For some reason, our phone line is not working correctly. The phone keeps circling back to the options of dialing 1 to talk with someone at the school and 2 for someone at Little Leaders. We apologize for this inconvenience and have someone coming out Monday morning to fix it. In the meantime, please send any school messages by email to carla.till@andrew.k12.ia.us or to your student's teacher through Seesaw or email.
Just a reminder that the fundraiser orders and 5K Spooky Sprint signups are both due on Tuesday, September 26th.
Yesterday we talked with all the students who ride a school bus to or from school about our bus expectations. We informed the students why it was important to follow each of these expectations. Attached you will find the sheet that helps show these expectations.
Families and Community Members,
We just wanted to remind everyone if you plan on participating in the 5K Spooky Sprint, registration is due by September 26th. The shirts will be orange and the design and wording will be made with glow-in-the-dark ink... If you are not able to participate but still would like a shirt, they are available for $15 (Please indicate - just a shirt on your form).
Hope to see you there!!

We are encouraging all students to bring a $1.00 donation to school on Wednesday, September 20th to help support Make a Difference Day. Make a Difference Day will be supporting Sleep In Heavenly Peace this year. All money raised will go towards purchasing supplies for our activities that day.
Andrew Families,
We had an item that needed to be fixed on the school calendar. The fix is for November 22. That day is a No school day for students or staff. It was simply not colored correctly and we forgot to include that in the fall break. Attached is the fixed calendar.
Families and Community Members,
Here is the shirt design for the 5K Spooky Sprint this year. The shirts will be orange and the design and wording will be made with glow-in-the-dark ink... If you are not able to participate but still would like a shirt, they are available for $15 (Please indicate - just a shirt on your form). I am also including the registration form which is due on September 26th (just in case you don't receive one or need another).
Hope to see you there!!
