October 3, 2015 Band Evaluations at Copiah Academy
The FHS Marching Band scores for the Copiah Competition : Guard- 1 Percussions - 1 Drum Major -1 Band - 2 (overall) It was early, it was overcast, it was a blustery, windy morning at the Copiah Marching Evaluations, but the FHS marching band did a great job at competition Saturday morning. We were up early and leaving by 7:40 and performed at 10:30 a.m. The kids have worked hard at learning their music and moves and how to keep time to an 8 to 5 step. When you see a band student tell them to keep up the great work!!

FHS Homecoming We will have a Hospitality Room for the Homecoming Court in the VoTech. Thank you to the ones who signed up to provide finger foods. There will be a list added shortly for a reminder. THANKS!!!
Afterschool band practice is on Tuesday's and Thursdays until 5:00 for all students marching. This is not optional for marching students. This is going to be an "awesome" year and to achieve the level of performance that we want, it takes practice. WATER - WATER - WATER It is "HOT" outside! Students should prepare for this by staying hydrated. The time to start hydrating isn't during band. To stay fully hydrated they need to make sure they drink plenty of water the day before and make sure to BRING A WATER BOTTLE TO PRACTICE THAT CAN BE REFILLED. Soda is NOT hydration for band practice.
