Thank you to all that supported the performance and to Ms. Kaal for her continued leadership and development of our amazing band program!
8. The end of semester 1 is today. We begin the new Semester, Quarter 3 on Monday. There is no school tomorrow as teachers will be finalizing grades for Semester 1.
