Mighty Brahma Band

I am proud to report that our Mighty Brahma Band brought home the First Division Superior Trophy from UIL Marching Competition this past Saturday.  This constitutes the 7th consecutive year that the Brahma Band has demonstrated First Division performance in UIL Marching.  Please congratulate our students for their achievement, they have weathered a storm of new challenges this year and deserve a big pat on the back.  

There are many people we would like to recognize for helping make our success possible.  Mr. Bobby Jones and our transportation/maintenance department take very good care of us.  Thanks to our custodians for their hard work.  Our Band Booster Club led by Liz Sims is there for us whenever we need them.  Jackson and Brandon in our Tech department have kept us running and have helped in band rehearsals.  Special thank you to AD Long and all of the EB coaching staff for sharing the students with us.  We appreciate our cheerleaders for cheering us on.  Band parents that have worked at the concession stand and have helped at games and contests, we could not have made it happen without your efforts.  Our 7th and 8th grade Banner Bulls gave our show another touch of class that no one else had.         

On a personal note, our administrators in East Bernard are best I have ever worked with, thank you for your constant support and council.  

More Trophies coming soon!
