EXPANDING HOW STUDENTS LEARN MUSIC

Important Announcements!

Friday, Oct. 24 Home Football Game

Thanks for a great season, everyone – the band has made a ton of progress this year and we are excited to perform our final show this Friday. We have one more Wednesday evening practice and then game day on Friday.

Parents, we could use more help this week with the game volunteering and pre-game dinner:

We are looking for a Gala committee chair or co-chairs for this year.

With some of your help we’ve gotten off to a good start on the school year, with support for the marching band during performances (both parades and at football games). We look forward to the last two games this year, this Friday and on the 24th.

Now is the time to begin our journey towards our major fundraising event of the year, the Gala event on April 18th at Newport. The committee Chair(s) will head the overall effort, coordinating four sub-committees:

Donations or Procurement - this effort needs to begin soon
Marketing
Food
Decorations

The Chair would organize meetings and coordinate the committees. There will be significant help from the NBPA board as there was in past years.

If you are interested in being the Gala Chair or a sub-committee chair please let someone on the NBPA board know. You can contact Rob at 425-533-3002 or rgalbers01@gmail.com.

Chipotle Fundraiser – THIS SATURDAY, OCT. 25 – 5-9 PM

If you are able to visit the Factoria Chipotle store this Saturday for dinner, you can support Newport Band by purchasing a meal between 5-9 PM. See the flyer for details and be sure to have a copy of it when you order. This works for in person or online orders, share this information with all your friends and family!

The next NBPA meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 18 at 7 PM in the Black Box Theater (temporary band space) at Newport.

Newport Band Calendar

Welcome to the Newport High School Band in Bellevue, Washington

The Newport Band Program is made up of hundreds of talented, motivated and energetic high school students. The program has a long running tradition of producing highly refined and gifted performing musicians. Band students at Newport are given the amazing opportunity to play and compete in a variety of quality ensembles, receive excellent instruction, perform in a variety of unique and exciting venues and represent their community all across the country.

Students who participate in our program are automatically inducted into the fantastic Newport Marching Band as well as our grade-level based large ensemble classrooms. In addition, students can audition for our exciting jazz program. What’s more, students have the chance to perform at local events, including school basketball games, assemblies, solo and ensemble festivals, and much more.

For our student athletes, we make it easy to be both athletic and musical, by accommodating practice and game schedules as much as possible to allow for the broadest participation.
