Fall is Here and Playoff Season!
The first quarter of this school year just flew by! As we get into our second quarter, I want to reflect on all of the great accomplishments our music department has had so far this year! Our high school band has done a great job during their marching season and I am excited to continue our work into Round II of playoffs this week! All of our performances were excellent learning opportunities and I only hope to carry that energy into concert season!
Every student should be proud of their work in the music department! I hope that we can continue to push forward and build up our students! I look forward to our successes throughout this year in all of our performing ensembles and each of our school programs!
Go Wildcats!
Cordially,
