  • The band will leave tomorrow to compete in the UIL State Marching Contest. We will do a send off tomorrow for them.  We will call you to line up along White Oak Road around 9:15 when they are ready to go.  We wish them and Mr. Steele the best of luck as they compete with the best in the state and also wish them safe travels.  Go show them what a Military Band is supposed to look like!
  • If you are going to support the band and are missing school, you should have already talked to me and discussed how you may be excused. Anyone who has not done this will receive unexcused absences for the days you miss.  No one is excused from class until the band leaves tomorrow. If you have any questions about this, please see me this morning.
