Weekly Update from Mr. Dailey - October 3, 2022
Hello Band Families!
Thank you so much for your flexibility and patience this weekend at the Big Cat Marching Festival! I am so proud of our students for the way they performed and how hard they’ve worked to present a full show in competition. They grew from prelims to finals and ended up moving up a spot in the rankings because of their focus even though the field was much more wet and they had a long day. That show to show growth is all I can ask for and I’m thrilled with the way this season is progressing!
Without a football game, this week is a little less hectic, so we just have rehearsal on Tuesday as far as the marching band goes. The Jazz Bands will be featured at their concert this Thursday at 7 pm in the HHS auditorium, so please consider checking that out for a fun night of music and to celebrate their hard work this first quarter!

Ellen Hoodie
The students designed and are selling a hoodie in honor of Ellen Jackson that should be a pretty quick turn around. If you were interested in buying one of those, the cost should be around $20 (they are still working with the company on the final price). Here is the order form link:
