FALL MARCHING BAND PICTURES UPDATE
I believe they will be sending proofs soon that we can order from. I have received no new information.
ATTENTION PARENTS AND STUDENTS!!!!
Be sure to read the band handbook on the Important Documents Page before you sign the online commitment form for marching band.
Marching Band and especially band camp is not a time to diet. Many of our students are exerting themselves just as much as any other sport while out in the sun. Students must eat well, drink plenty of water, and avoid caffeine. So many of the medical issues we have with students stem from them not eating or drinking properly. Please encourage your child to take care of themselves.
