Marching Band Pictures
Any student that has band 3rd hour will be excused from their 7th hour class to report to the band room. Students will need to make sure they talk to their teachers and catch up on any work they may miss.
Students will need to have their black drillmaster shoes, black socks, athletic shorts, and black shirt (doesn't have to be the Dragon shirt) ready to go Tuesday.
My apologies for the last minute addition of these pictures - Mr. Alsbro has a print deadline on the fall booklets that I was not aware of. We want the students to be featured for their hard work!
