Please take a few moments to read our Band Booster Update A SPECIAL THANK YOU!!!- posted 05/31/19
I wanted to take a moment to say a special THANK YOU to all of the band parents that have helped out this year! I was recently made aware that I am the only band director in western North Carolina teaching a band of our size by myself. We have 194 students signed up for band at Davie High. I simply cannot do it on my own. Having parent volunteers and booster members like you certainly helps! Thank you to the band booster board for all your work this year. You have been crucial in the success of the band! |
