Recurring Announcements:

1. Fall sectional/rehearsal schedule
2. Sophomores...the PLAN test will not be moved. Counselors felt that since so few students take it anyway, they should go ahead with it. It's a prep for ACT, not SAT. 
3. Tuesday Oct. 28th ...Wind Ensemble will play for NHS ceremony. Put it on your calendars.
4. Coordinate Sheets Part 3 available here.
