Junior Performance Opportunities

Next week we have two performance opportunities for the Junior High Band and Orchestra.  On Tuesday, January 25th, the Panther Orchestra was invited to perform for the MLK Jr. Art Show for PESD at the State Capitol.  Come support our art and orchestra programs from 4:30-6 at the Capitol!

On Wednesday, January 26th, the Panther Band will be performing in the Herrera PAC for the PESD Convocation.  We even received a special request for the marching band to perform and get the district pumped up for the second semester!  Unfortunately, parents are not allowed at this event due to limited seating.  Don't worry, there will be plenty more performance opportunities!
