The band hosted Band Day last week and had 94 eighth grade students participating from Monrovia and Sparkman Middle Schools. The performed for pre-game and had an outstanding performance. Thanks to all the parents that helped feed and clean up after over 360 students!
This week the band will travel to Alabama A&M University to perform in the Louis Crews Stadium as the football team plays Huntsville High School. Hope to see you there.
Note: We will not stop and eat on the way to the game and students will not have an opportunity to get food during the game. Please make plans to see that each student eats before call time.
