Six Flags Trip And Rehearsals
Wednesday , June 1st – Mandatory Festival Rehearsal
Thursday, June 2nd – Mandatory Jazz Band Festival Rehearsal

All concerts are mandatory and count towards the student’s grade.  It is a culmination of all of the hard work the students have done leading up to the performance. Advanced Band and Jazz Band are extra so do not count towards a grade, but do factor towards inclusion in the six flags trip.



The Cookie Dough Order has been placed. Now we wait for the check. Once I get it I can send it and get a delivery date from the company. More to come....
