BAND BANQUET - IT'S NOT TOO LATE!

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.

Banquet tickets are $25 per person, and payment deadline was April 26. If you have not yet paid, please do so this week! If you have any questions, contact banquet coordinator Hope Burford at hburford@jacksonacademy.org.
