Trojan Pep Band Season Ends with a Big Win and Parent Musicians!

 

The final gig of the Pep Band Season featured guest the parent musicians from our very own members of the band! We're always thankful to share the gift of music with our "extended" band family. Somebody has to remind these kids "how it's done!" Thank you for supporting your students in their musical endeavors!

Not only was it a great night of music-making for the Trojan Pep Band, but we were excited to help the Varsity Girls Team celebrate a big win over Proviso West on their Senior night! Congratulations Trojans!

Congratulations to the many students who were able to achieve "Perfect Attendance" this season! You will be recognized and awarded with a "Perfect Attendance Patch" at our annual Band Awards Night in the spring.

All the students with their families who came to support us on Parent Night!

The whole Ham Family made it to this year's Parent Night, including proud 2022 band Alum, Penny!
