Last week's Band Section of the Week honors go to the Trombone section in both the 7th/8th Grade Band (2 missing from photo) and 6th Grade Band. The 7th/8th Grade Band trombones have two students who auditioned for ILMEA All-District Band this last week while the 6th Grade Band trombones set good examples for behavior and responsibility throughout the week. Congrats!
