Listen to this great performance from our Marching Hornets last weekend at Lawrence Central . . .
The Marching Hornets finished in second place at the Lawrence Central Invitational this past Saturday. They were awarded best music, visual and percussion.
This Saturday, September 24, our Band will be the only Class C band competing at Avon. This provides a great opportunity for us to add changes to our show and receive feedback from one of the top judging panels in the nation. Our Hornets perform at 4:57 p.m. on Saturday.
Congratulations, Marching Hornets, on last week's success! And, good luck at Avon!

HS Student Leadership Team Raises Money for Riley Children's Hospital!
The student leadership team (SLT) raised $625.50 for Riley Children's Hospital last Friday night with a 'miracle minute' at halftime & a dunk tank throughout the night. The SLT would like to thank all of the teachers who volunteered their time to be dunked for donations. Special thanks to the Beech Grove Marching Hornets for playing a song for our 'miracle minute.' Also, thank you to the IUPUI Jagathon team for coming out and supporting us on Friday night. They are sponsoring the SLT in their efforts to raise money for Riley and helping us plan our Riley Dance Marathon! Overall, it was a very successful night raising money for Riley and it couldn't have been possible if not for the Beech Grove community! Be on the look out for the SLT tomorrow night, as we will be "canning" the next home football game during homecoming! Well done, Student Leadership Team!
A few of the dunk tank photos from last week's game are featured below.
