Hello Everyone,
I hope you're all enjoying a terrific summer break! As we approach band camp, I wanted to share some important updates and reminders.
🛑 Band Activities Dead Week
Please note that June 28–July 6 is our official band activities “dead week.” During this time, staff will be unavailable for communication. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
📋 FinalForms Registration Required
Most students still need to complete registration in FinalForms, our district’s online system for managing participation forms.
Register at: https://neoshosd-mo.finalforms.com
Follow the prompts to create your account, add your student(s), and complete all required forms.
Be sure to select “Band” as one of your student’s activities.
Upload your student’s pre-participation physical and complete all other documentation before band camp begins.
FinalForms saves your information year-to-year, making it easy to keep records updated.
🎵 Band Camp Attendance Policy
Attendance at all camp sessions and rehearsals is required to participate in the 2025–26 band season.
Important: Missing even one day of camp is comparable to missing two weeks of regular class instruction. Attendance is critical for both musical success and student safety.
