From the Podium: 8/26-8/30

We have a big week in the band room! It’s our first home 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 full and ready for rehearsal!
