Dear Middle School Directors:
Welcome to another year! Sadly, we will not be able to conduct our annual JCPS All-County Band Festival for our 7th and 8th graders due to COVID. In the works, however, is a virtual opportunity for students in smaller settings, but I will need help to pull this off! If you are interested in helping me and the All-County committee, it would involve being an instrument chair-person and eventually supervising an individual Google Classroom that we create as a district. If you are interested in this opportunity, please email me at joseph.stivers@jefferson.kyschools.us by Friday, September 18th.
In the meantime, I highly encourage you to find a music PLC group that can be of support to you during these times! We are all in this together and the more ideas we can share, the better we are for our students. For a list of our rolling NTI 2.0 tools, click here (be sure these are board approved before implementing). To view board approved platforms and tools, click here.
If you need anything, please feel free to reach out to me!
