Overall we are extremely proud of the time and hard work the students put into learning the music. Competition is fierce and you have to get through the nerves and perform for the judges. We are excited of the number of underclassmen listed above and most of them were first time performers for the competition. Now they know what to expect and how to work for the next time. We also want to congratulate the advancing students and wish them luck on Area competition which is even more intense.
Way to go band students.
