Albany High School students,
along with eighth grade musi-
cians, began meeting this week
for the first rehearsals of the 2006
AHS marching band, according to
band director John Stockdale.
The band will continue rehears-
ing on Thursday and Friday of
this week at 7:00 p.m. Regular
weekly rehearsals will get under-
way the following Monday, Au-
gust 14, also set for 7:00 p.m. at
the AHS band hall. The band will
meet weekly at that same time,
according to the director.
Red polo shirts will be passed
out during the first part of the
week, and the students are asked
to wear or bring khaki pants (not
shorts) on Thursday, August 17
for a photograph to be published
in the 2006 football program. The
director stated that there are quite
a few khakis available at the band
hall for those who do not already
have a pair.
More than 20 members of the
band were expected to start prac-
ticing this week with Melissa
Bartee Jones to learn routines for
"The Albany Line," the drill team
that performs with the AHS band.
Stockdale stated that only about
16 will be performing during half-
time shows.
Stockdale expects close to 90
musicians this fall, including
eighth graders. Junior Megan
Schooler will serve as drum major.
For more information about
practice times, call Stockdale at
762-5184 or at the school, 762-
3974.

Meetings set for NSES parents
Two separate Parent Forum fewer prwWeirts we*!! have
Sessions have been scheduled
i on Thursday, August 10 at
Nancy Smith Elementary School
for incoming PreK-6 students'
and their parents.
The special orientation for
preschool through second grade
Students will last from 5:00 to
§:30 p.m., while meetings for
third through sixth grades will
begin at 5:30 and end at 6:00
p.m., according to NSES Princi-
pal Doyleen Terrell.
Info for Parents
The forums will be geared to-
ward parents and it is not neces-
sary for students to attend, said
Terrell.
Students' names will be listed
on the window of the classroom
where they have been assigned,
but the meetings for each grade
level will probably be combined
into one classroom, the princi-
pal explained.
"The teachers are planning to
give parents some important
information that will help their
children become better stu-
dents," said Terrell. "I feel that
communication is always our
biggest problem, and the more
that parents understand about
the way our system works, the
throughout the school year."
The principal emphasized
that the 30-minute orientations
are not set up as "come and go"
times, and that parents should
be in the classrooms at the ap-
pointed time.
"Hopefully, by dividing the
grade levels into two separate
meeting times, we'll avoid hav-
ing very many parents that need
to go to more than one session at
a time. I suggest that the par-
ents who do have children close
to the same age divide up and go
to different classrooms."
After each brief orientation
session, teachers will be on hand
to meet parents and answer
questions about daily schedules.
Elementary Schedule
Classes for kindergartners
and all students will begin the
following Monday, August 14.
All preschool and kindergar-
ten classes, however, will be cut
short for the first four days of
school, August 14-17, to allow
the younger students a little time
to get adjusted to a full day of
school activities. The students
can be picked up at 12:00 noon.
Starting Friday, August 18,
regular school hours of 8:00 a.m.
v (to/3.00 p.m.- will begin.
First and second grade classes
will also be dismissed at 3:00
p.m. each day. Older students
will be released at 3:40 p.m. Mon-
day through Thursday, and at
3:00 p.m. on Fridays.
'That means that all students,
preschool through sixth grade
will be released at the same time,
3:00 p.m., on Friday afternoons,"
Mrs. Terrell clarified.
For more information, call the
NSES office at 762-3384.
Correction
Required school supplies
listed in the August 4th issue for
local third graders included "12
spiral notebooks." Third grade
students at Nancy Smith El-
ementary School will actually
need only one spiral notebook.
The News regrets the error.
Also, the names of Albany ISD
secretaries Helen Ivy and
Amanda Moberley were not in-
cluded on the list of personnel
provided to the News for the
back-to-school pages. Ivy and
Moberley will be employed by
the district for the upcoming
school year.

Junior drum major Megan Schooler marks off spacing for members of the AHS band as they
start off on the right foot with summer rehearsals this week.

7th graders, parents to learn procedures
Albany seventh graders and
their parents are urged to attend
a special meeting Thursday
evening in order to learn some of
the procedures in effect at the
junior high level, as well as meet
their teachers.
The session will begin at 6:30
p.m. in the Albany High School/
Albany Junior High School snack
bar, following the two elementary
parent forums.
According to AHS/AJHS Prin-
cipal Tommy Terrell, the time was
set in order to allow some parents
to attend the meetings at the el-
ementary campus the same
evening.
Also, Terrell stated that eighth
graders and their parents, espe-
cially new students, are welcome
at the junior high session in addi-
tion to seventh grade students and
parents.
"There will be some good infor-
mation available for both classes,"
said the principal. "There aren't
any major changes from last year
at the secondary level, but if you
haven't had a student in junior
high or high school before or for
several years, it would be helpful.
There are also a few policy
changes, so it would be beneficial
for all junior high parents to learn
about these before classes begin."
Terrell will present general in-
formation during the meeting,
covering such topics as expecta-
tions for the year, dress code, dis-
cipline, etc.
Teachers will be introduced
during the evening as well.
The principal asked that jat '
least one parent make an attemjpt
to be present.
Although there hasn't beefl a
school supply list published for
junior high students, Terrell said
that seventh and eighth graders
should bring basics the first day of
school, such as pens, pencils and
paper. Teachers will give details
about other required supplies dur-
ing the first few days of school.
Addresses needed for Class of '56
Members of the Albany High
School Class of 1956 will gather
for a reunion October 6-7, accord-
ing to Ann Lilly Wooldridge, who
is helping organize the event.
Wooldridge stated that help is
needed to locate former classmates
Shirley Oxford Grandeset, Aleta
Rountree Haigood, David Hale,
Ed Keefer, Max Kelley, Jerry Mor-
gan, Patricia Ormond, Bobby
Smith, Nancy Payne and Dubrois
Robinson Worley.
Anyone who has a current ad-
dress or knows someone who does
is asked to contact Wooldridge at
325-762-2396, Don Sazama at 762-
2262, or Weldon (Sonny) Wright
at 762-3290.
