2020-21 BAND AWARDS

*Due to Covid 19, the band awards this year were based mostly off of Classroom Instruction rather than Performances/Practices. All of the students did a tremendous job overcoming obstacles this year. Ths DRUM SECTION was challenged to become "Percussionists". They can "all" not only proficiently execute the 40 essentials rudiments/sight-read but also play 12 major Scales/Chromatic scale on marimba/xylophone, tune timpani, repair percussuon equipment, among other things. I want to send a special shout out to the Senior Class of 2021 for stepping up big time as leaders. It is my hope that the next class will do the same or even better. Info about Summer Band Camp(s) will be posted soon. Congrats again. Now it's time to prepare for the next edition "THE RETURN". stay tuned and get your popcorn ready....
-Mr. E. Hudson, M.M.
