Week 3 of School – 9/3/19-9/6/19
What an exciting Gucci Bowl and first game to start off the season! Go Chargers! Thank you to ALL the parent volunteers that made things happen. We had parents covering food, chaperoning, hydration, nurse, crew and everything in between. We could not do this without you. The band had a good first run at the show and will cover more detail in classes with film. Way to go!

If you wear a hair band, it must match your hair color. Make sure you are passing off your music! Eat healthy, hydrate, wear a ball cap and have your towel or yoga mat at all rehearsals! Pass everything off now so you can march the football performances. Flashfund Fundraiser is still going, so get the word out!! Mr. Espinoza will have bus sitting locations for you this week.
