Excellence exposes mediocrity

Folks don’t want you to rise up, because they are too comfortable in their lack of awareness.

It was wonderful hosting All District Band last week. Thank u to everyone that helped out. We had a wonderful time with our guest conductors Dr. William Lake, Dr. Mark Johnson, & Mr. Ken Poe. The concerts were fantastic.
