Welcome to second semester! Thank you to everyone who made it out to Panda Express on Thursday to help support the program! STUDENTS: We are now 50% through the school year, which means we need to be 50% better at everything we do - whether it's how we play, how we practice, how we warm up, how we toss a rifle, even how we sit in a chair. Ask yourself, "What can I do to help those around me sound better?"
