🏆🎉 MARCHING BEARS DO IT AGAIN! 🎉🏆
It was another incredible weekend for the Marching Bears! After winning our first-ever Grand Championship at Pridelands last weekend, the Marching Bears followed it up with a second consecutive Grand Championship at the Lake Lanier Tournament of Bands, earning Superior ratings across every caption and taking home the Silver Division Grand Championship.

We are incredibly proud of the work, perseverance, and teamwork our students have shown throughout this season, and we are especially excited about the powerful message of HOPE they continue to bring to the field.

We have one more competition before the season wraps up, on Saturday, October 17, at Flowery Branch High School.

GO BEARS!
