We have a big week in the band room! It’s our first game and senior night!
Heat Safety: It is going to be very hot this week. We will make sure appropriate breaks are taken and that we do not stay out in the heat longer than is advised. You can help us by making sure you are drinking water today and coming to school with full half gallon/gallon water jugs!

Thank you to Dr. Frederick for heading up this project and to ALL the volunteers who showed up and showed out yesterday to build shelves and reorganize our percussion room and equipment. This room will be much more functional for our students and rehearsals now!
