INDOOR MARCHING FINAL SHOW!!!

Due to the quickly evolving national and local implications of COVID-19, "Indoor Marching" competition seasons have been canceled nationally, including regional championships in Bowling Green, KY in a few weeks. As you can imagine, this is very disappointing to our students and their families who have invested a lot this season. In lieu of these developments, we've quickly put together a final event tomorrow

We want to invite EVERYONE to come out and support these hard-working and deserving students as we turn tomorrow's final rehearsal into an unexpected but fortunate opportunity to perform their exciting show productions one final time. We hope you can come tomorrow, Friday, March 13th at 5:00 p.m. in the Gold Gym!

5:00 - Madison County Indoor Winds

5:15 - BHS Winter Guard

5:30 - BHS Indoor Percussion

Jacob Souder

Director of Bands

Buckhorn High School

Both Indoor Percussion and Winter Guard had impressive performances at the “Madtown Indoor Throwdown”. The Percussion score jumped 7 points and Winter Guard score jumped 8.5 points!!! #BuckPride

These students have a lot to be proud of, earning superior ratings from all 3 stage judges and a superior rating in sight-reading at their annual Music Performance Assessment! Congratulations!

Custom Fundraising Solutions Birmingham presented Mr. Souder and the BHS Band with a $7,000 check (matching their year 1 record), with ~$1,000 of that going directly to student accounts! Tyler Weldy also won the Beats headphones and the Clarinet section won the video contest. Thank you to everyone who helped get people to the sale and/or bought one yourself! We hope to see you at the same time, same place next year.

From August to April, a panel of judges selects one Athlete of the Week. Applicants must be a high school senior, have a minimum GPA of 3.5 and display a history of athletic and academic accomplishments, as well as community/civic involvement.

At the end of the school year, all weekly winners are invited to a banquet held in their honor.

The Round Up Program was started by The Schools Foundation and Huntsville Utilities to support local public school systems. The Schools Foundation is a funding partner of Madison County Schools. The more residential and commercial locations that round up, the more funding we can receive. Estimates show that if just half of the residential Huntsville Utilities users rounded up, it would generate approximately $500,000 to support our schools! By rounding up your utility bill to the nearest dollar each month, you help invest in the future of our students!

You can easily sign up to round up online:

http://www.hsvutil.org/myhsvu…/checkbill/roundup/signup.html

It might be a penny, it might be 25 cents, it might be 99 cents, but it will be no more than $11.88 a year. It takes less than 1 minute to fill out.

Thank you for supporting one of our community partners! Go Bucks!
