Farewell Class of 2020!

A school year cut short, we will never forget the experiences and hard lessons from the year 2020.  Please enjoy this video that recalls the great things that happened during the 2019-2020 school year.  This was created by a band student and one of next year's drum majors, Ricardo Villafane.  Great work Ricardo! 

Enjoy the Year End Video
