We are all extremely proud of our marching band for winning the Grand Champion trophy over the weekend. We couldn’t accomplish such great achievements like this without incredible students, parents & band staff. Thank you to everyone putting so much time & effort into the program!
This Week's Marching Band Schedule
•Friday Night Football games at each HS •No competition and a well, deserved long weekend
Band Expo Volunteers Needed
Below you will find links to sign up to help throughout the day. The links take you to a series of tabbed sign up's for the event. There are two separate sign up's, one for adults and one for students. Please make sure you sign up accordingly.
Do we have any parents who are knowledgeable in small engines? If so, we could use your help. Our band golf cart is running, but is a bit sluggish and could use a look over. If you are interested in helping with this, please let joewesche@foresthills.edu know.

Many thanks to Boosters John Grube and Eric Randolph for fixing the “fast” popcorn machine at Turpin and saving us from buying a new one. May the popcorn sales overfloweth!
