The JA Jazz Band, the Drumline, the Winter Guard, and the Sixth Grade Band all had fine performances for the elementary student body on Friday morning. Thank you to all the students for helping to showcase the band program.
SPRING SCHEDULE UPDATE
There will not be a JA Band Program Spring Concert on May 8. Instead, to lighten the burden on our busy families' schedules, the JA Jazz Band and the Sixth Grade Band will perform at the Band Banquet, May 17 at the Mississippi Museum of Art.
We hope all of our band families are able to attend the concert and banquet, at which all JA Band members, sixth through twelfth grades, will be recognized for their efforts this year.
