This week we continue to slow down marching band activities and start gearing up for concert season as well as our indoor groups activities. It's an exciting time of the year. 

It's BEAT THE BREEZE week here, at NHS and that means we will have the largest football crowd of the year with us on Friday night. 

Simply put, WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please sign-up to volunteer in the concession stand. It's a great way to meet other parents and make new friends. Our regulars do such and awesome job!

Thanks in advance!

Can I say Straight 1's!!!

Congratulations to our students and staff on an absolutely awesome weekend! What a a way to end our competitive season. I am so proud of your where you have taken this show. Your accomplishments are a testimony to your hard work, dedication and love of what we do. Remember, Finis Coronat Opus...The End Crowns the Work.

A special thanks to those parents who did such a wonderful job with our senior night celebrations. It keeps getting better and better and I really appreciate all you do. Equally, I want to thank all of the parent volunteers that chaperone our events as well as volunteer in our concession stands. You guys are amazing and an integral part in everything we do. Again, thank you for your continued support.

This week we start dialing back our marching band activities and transitioning to our winter groups. Now it REALLY gets busy. Following Thanksgiving break, we will be in full swing with two concert bands, indoor percussion and winterguard. The band hall is a beehive a full 5 days a week! 

Please be on the lookout for added football games. Our team is again having an awesome year and that normally means extra games...and extra concession nights. That's a good thing!

Lastly, please make sure that you are making an effort to stick to our fair share contribution schedule. The band uses these funds to do all we do and we need everyone's participation.

Please make sure to take advantage of the volunteering opportunities for this week and make sure to complete the meal deal for those students wanting to stay this coming Friday. 

Thanks in advance!

Competition week #2 is in the books and it was great!

We love competing as we feel that, no matter what happens, it always makes us better. This weekend was no different and while we came away with a "B" of sorts, the effort put forth by our students and chaperones was definitely a solid "A". 

The judges gave us plenty to consider as we continue to hone our show to be the very best it can be. We will continue to make push ourselves to be our very best and make this the very best show it can be. The level of commitment, hard work and enthusiasm exhibited by our students is truly inspiring. Speaking on behalf of the staff and myself, we are honored to be able to work with these awesome kids. 

We have THREE performance days this week and we need your help to be successful. 

Parent volunteers are the backbone of this program so, please make plans to chaperone if you can.

Thanks in advance!
