Congratulations!

There were several students from Walker who auditioned for the All-City Honor Band this evening.  I am very proud of them!  There are 34 Middle Schools in DISD.  These students won top placements over several hundred other students who play the same instrument they play. 
Here are the names of those who auditioned and their placements.

I'm very proud of you all for putting in the effort and going for it!

Friday
Walker Fall Festival
The band will host two booths.  A Cake Walk and a concession stand.  We need parent volunteers to work at the concession stand.  We need all band families to donate a cake or a dozen cupcakes for prizes for the Cake Walk.  Please send the cake with your student on Thursday or Friday.  To help out at the concession stand please contact Stella Castillo at 214-564-8156.
