“A” Day

STUDENTS:

CONGRATULATIONS to our 6th, 7th, and 8th grade band students who represented our school so well at yesterday’s Northeast Iowa Bandmasters Association Large Group Festival held at DeWitt High School. All three bands achieved the highest possible rating of “Superior” and were praised for their musicality. Our “senior” band has now earned 39 “Superior” ratings since its first appearance at a large group festival in 1981.

12 year olds or younger interested in playing soccer through the Y, registration is open until March 14. Stop by the office or Y for additional information.
