Week of 12/17/12

As we head into this final week of school before our two-week break, I'd like to thank all of the parents, students, and staff for a wonderful fall marching season.  Without everyone's support and participation, we would not be the Sapphire Sound family.  Our group is made up of 165 students all of whom are individuals, but understand how to work as one.

This is a sobering week as we reflect on the families that have faced tragedy in Connecticut.  Let's remember to give one another a smile, a kind word, and be thankful for who we are and what we have here in Mira Mesa.

Our schedule for this week is the following:
* Monday - Secret Santa/Friend begins
* Tuesday - Choral Concert at MMHS at 7pm in the auditorium
* Wednesday - Challenger MS Band Concert at 6pm & Wangenheim MS Band Concert at 7pm
* Thursday - nothing! :-)
* Friday - Band performs around campus & annual "Breakfast of Champions" - period 1 & 2

All instruments need to go home over the winter break, so please make arrangements with your student to help transport home the large instruments on Thursday or Friday.
