FALCON NOTES I hope all of you had time over the Thanksgiving break to spend with family, friends and loved ones. It was a nice way to take a breath for the stretch before the Winter Break. Now that our "breather" is over, we have a full plate ahead of us. Our Jazz Band is playing this Wednesday for the opening of Cal National Bank from 11:30-12:00. The Marching Band will be performing at the annual "Montrose Christmas Parade" this Saturday. Mickey Rooney will be the grand marshal. The call time for marching band is 4:00 and the parade kicks off at 6:00pm. We need parent driversfor both Jazz Band and Marching Band events. If you are available, please contact Mr. Schick at Mschick@gusd.net I can't believe that next week is our Winter Concert! I hope to see you all there. Have a great week! |
