EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT!

Things are moving pretty fast around here. If you don't stop and check it out, you might miss it (apologies to Ferris Bueller). Here's what's up:

• The amazing Tigard High Marching Ensemble went to their first competition of the season and swept Class A in Prelims, and raised their own overall score by 1.6 points in Finals - wow! Now, students are busy learning the closer. Yay!🎵

• Speaking of MB and learning, remember that we have a 4-hour rehearsal this Friday on the inservice day. Be on the field, ready to go, at 10am. We will rehearse until 2pm, with a snack break from 11:45 - 12:15. Wear weather-appropriate clothing. 🌂

• Speaking of Friday, at the end of rehearsal we will gather in the Commons for a special ceremony honoring Tiffany Reekie, who has been chosen to perform at the US Army All-American Bowl Game in San Antonio in January - WOW!!! So plan to hang out until 2:30 or so, as the US Army will be here to talk about how fabulous she is! 🏁

• Speaking of Friday, we also have a football game! Call time for MB is 5:30 - for pep band call time is 6pm. Remember, it's a Pink Out. The forecast says the rain should be gone by then. Keep your fingers crossed! 🏈

• And our final note today is about the Spring performance trip to Disneyland. There is an important change you need to note: we have shifted the trip by one day. We will now leave on Thursday March 29 and return Tuesday April 3. The main reason for the change is that if we had stayed with the previously-announced dates, we would have had to increase the price of the trip by $100 - airfare was very high for those dates. By shifting it to a Thursday/Tuesday trip, there was a dramatic decrease in airfare. So that's what we did, and it's final. CLICK HERE to check out the flight information.
