Thank you to our “judges” for helping out during class today! We had Mr. Lotfi, AP Fisher, Dean Kassander, Mr. Linn, and former RBMS all-stars, Maggie and Lilly. We appreciate your valuable input!
So thankful for Mr. Taylor for coming to work with our 8th graders today. Our 8th graders are working SO hard in the final push towards Assessment and we couldn’t be more proud of their progress and dedication to band! #bandfam
Proud of our 8th graders, Concert Band, and Symphonic Band on their pre assessment concert tonight! We are so grateful to Mr. Morton, Ms. Newmiller, and Mr. Taylor for all of their valuable insight!
7th grade really showed up and brought their A game tonight. We are SO proud.
Another fun test drive night. Any excuse to hangout with current and former RBMS band kids is a win!
MR. Lotfi is here! We’re so lucky to have such great support from our HS counterpart!! 💜🖤
We are SO proud of Keeley and Peterson for their participation in All District Band last weekend!
LOVED meeting some future RBMS musicians this evening! We are always grateful to our incredible student helpers for making these test drives run so smoothly!
So grateful to have some awesome musicians come and work with our 8th graders! (A few are not pictured here :( ). We are lucky to live in an area rich with fantastic musicians who are willing to work with our students!
We LOVE seeing our pals from ♥️
We had some 6th graders caroling around the building today♥️
Jazz band brought their A game tonight!! It was so much fun to share the stage with the Raven Choir, Pop Strings, and Guitar Club tonight!
So awesome to have former RBMS/PFHS band student Molly Lum come work with our kids today!
Have a great weekend and be sure to play your instruments in this long week out of school! - a Moo-sician and Bawch
Fun morning with our amazing 7th graders. Band breakfast is the best
Band 8 breakfast was a great way to start the day 🎶 ☕️
Feeling super appreciative to be making music with our awesome band students! Here is our 8th graders crushing it today!!
Already missing these crazy kids!
To our 8th graders: We are so proud of all you accomplished in the most unusual year. You always have a “home” here. We love you. “Before you leave the band room for the last time, stop and take a look around for just one moment. These four walls have seen you at your worst and at your best. The have seen love between people. They have seen you on your most joyous days and your most melancholy ones. They have seen the person you were when you walked in for the first time and the person you have become. When you turn back around and walk through the halls for the last time, know that these walls are silently weeping - and maybe you are, too - because you both realize that in order to go somewhere in life, you must first leave home.” -unknown
“Let’s Chalk it Up to a Great Year!” Our 6th graders showed a little love to the 8th graders today.

It is so much fun to make music with our friends! We hope you enjoy our take on Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree 🎄
Don’t forget! The section in each grade with the most participation will win a prize :)
Another favorite throwback. Was the “theremin” (iPad) in tune with the upper woodwinds? Nope. Were we having fun making some incredible music together? YES. If we can play together again soon, I promise to never complain about intonation....wait, no, I can’t make that promise 😬. I can’t WAIT to complain about intonation again! We miss making music in person with you. 💜💛
We don’t know about you but we are still feeling pretty spOoOokY these days. Check out some awesome renditions of Spooky Scary Skeletons from a few of our kids! (Pt2)
