9TH GRADE PARENTS: Your life too will soon be as hectic as your young teenage muscian, but not to fret! The Renger Band Boosters will help guide and assure 'your' transition to High School Band is as enjoyable as your students. Here is further information about the Ranger Band Family.

Ranger Band Recycling Program! Does you inkjet printer eat cartridges faster than a teenage musician cleans out a fridge? Did you finally get that new cell phone so you could text your teen? If so, please remember to send your used inkjet cartridges and outdated cell phones with your musician to school to be recycled. There is a drop-off box in the band hall, and the band does receive proceeds from your contribution. And best of all, they are recycled so you can buy them again next year!

WANTED: A FEW GOOD LAPTOPS: We would like a few laptops for our students to use for individual practice that utilize software we have available. We are not looking for top-of-the-line models, more like corporate 'retiree' models. They can be Mac or PC, with XP/Vista/MacOSx. If you or your company has some retirees, the Ranger Band can provide a tax-deductible receipt. You can send the make and model to Mr. Schnitzer to see if it meets the software requirements.
