I just wanted to let everyone know that our groups in the band program are doing a great job!

The High School Jazz Band received a 1- rating at the PSU Jazz Festival--Megan and Joe received outstanding musicianship awards. Other students receiving outstanding soloist awards this year are Olivia, Spencer, Hal, and Megan. I'm so proud of all of you!

The ladies in the inaugural winter guard are making us proud! They were promoted after their very first competition! And the floor crew have been doing a great job too! Their last thee competitions are March 14, 21, and 28.

On March 7 some of our 6th and 7th graders took solos and ensembles to a festival in Monett. We had 38 superior ratings and 27 excellent rating. We also had 10 students receiving outstanding musician awards! Way to go middle school band students--you make us all proud! Keep up the good work!

High school students are getting ready for State Band Festival on Tuesday, March 24th, and for District solos and ensembles on Friday, April 3. We entered a record number of solos and ensembles for our program--30 solos and 9 small ensembles.
