Congratulations and well done to our 5th-12th grade band participants. This band photo was taken last night at the end of the concert and does not include all students; some of our younger musicians had to leave before the end but Mr. Rodriguez and his band students are all rock stars and are becoming much more appreciative of the power of music in education! All of the bands did a wonderful job, well done!
