2/21/22 Jazz Bands Canceled Tonight

Dear band families,


There is a winter weather advisory beginning at 5pm tonight, and the forecast calls for a wintry mix coating the roads starting around 6pm. In the interests of keeping student drivers off the roads, we will be canceling all jazz rehearsals tonight. Stay safe, and we'll see you for jazz again next week.

Doug Brown & Eric Rothacker
