From the Podium: 11/28-12/2

Welcome back! We hope you all enjoyed time with friends and family during the Thanksgiving holiday last week. Three weeks left of the first semester! Let’s finish strong, everyone.

Congratulations band on the conclusion of this year’s marching season. Although we are sad that our football season was cut short, we can celebrate the success of the Fall in many, many ways.

A special thank you to our fabulous band boosters who worked tirelessly all season. There are never words to properly thank each and every parent who gave time to ensure their child had the best possible experience this Fall. I want to especially thank the parents who head up our different committees. I know the work is hard, but you make it look easy. Thank you so much.
