I just wanted to take a second to brag on Chris and his band. They received their first SUPERIOR rating this past weekend at the District Marching Festival in the school's 3 year history. Not only did the receive an overall SUPERIOR rating, but the scored SUPERIOR in each of the different categories that were evaluated. He and his kids have worked really hard over the past 3 years and were ecstatic to receive their ratings this year. I was sitting in the stands with his students when their rating was announced and it was electric.
Chris received many accolades from other area band directors about how well the band had performed. In fact one colleague told Chris he was skeptical when Chris told him he was going to be performing Aaron Copland's "Billy the Kid" this year, but that off all the bands that performed on Saturday he was most impressed with Chris's.
Congratulations Honey, you have certainly worked hard for this!!!
And congratulations to all the members of the Spartan Marching Band...we couldn't be more proud of you!!!
