We are in full swing with our Holiday Celebration. Between our locker decorations, band hall decorations, gift exchange, concerts, and tuba holiday, the band is enjoying a fun filled, non-stop festival in the band hall. Hopefully our students are coming full of smiles and spirit as they are practicing.
