Eve Parade Huge Success!

by LHS Band Director

Parents and students,

Special people make an organization great! Our band is lucky to have dedicated musicians, parents, and faculty to help create the resources and opportunities we need to have a special organization. 

I want to thank all of you for the outstanding job at the Krewe of Eve Parade Friday night.  I have heard from people across the Parish how great our band sounded and looked!  This could not have been done without the hard work of the band students in and out of rehearsal.  Their positive attitudes and hard work has instilled a great sense of pride for me and this organization.

A big thank you to all of the parents who volunteered to help make this parade run as smoothly as it did.  Your continued commitment to the band will ensure that our students continue to excel in music!  Thank you again so much for your time and energy!

Musically yours,

Jessica Lizana

Director of Bands Lakeshore High School

Back to School and Back to Work!

by LHS Band Director

Parents and students,

I hope everyone had a great holiday break, but its back to business as usual starting January 4, 2010.  Please remember to check the website for any updates and/or changes that may happen in the Spring Semester. Your students will be given two copies of the calendars on the first day we return to school.  This way they can keep a copy in their band binder and you can have one for the fridge at home.

I am very excited about the upcoming band events for the Spring Semester.  We are scheduled to participate in the Eve Parade, Honor Bands, Band Festival, Spring Concert, and Band Awards Night!  Then after all of those events pass its time to prep for the 2010 Football season and half time show.

As always we will need volunteers to help plan and work at all of these events and help fit the students in uniforms for the parades.  If you have any sewing experience or free time to help put the students in their uniforms that would be greatly appreciated.  Please contact me via email at jessica.lizana@stpsb.org and let me know when you are free so we can put it on the calendar.  Thank you so much for your support!

Musically yours,

Jessica Lizana
