Nationals and Brandon Jazz Meetings
For all parents and students involved in the Sr. Jazz/ Vocal Jazz tour to Nationals in May (16-20), there will be a meeting to discuss this exciting opportunity and to gauge involvement on October 13th at 6:30 PM in the Theatre. The meeting should take approximately 45 minutes.
As is tradition, all of our Jazz Bands will be heading to the Brandon Jazz festival in March (15-17). We meet once to discuss the basic details of the trip. That meeting takes place on the same night Thursday, October 13th at 7:30 PM in the theatre. It will be under an hour.
Please feel free to contact Mr. Edwards or Ms. Russell if you have any questions.
