History Made by the PGJH Band!
Today marked a first for Prairie Grove Junior High—our band attended contest for the very first time! The students set an ambitious goal of earning a Superior (1) or Excellent (2) rating, and they delivered.
On stage, the band was evaluated by three judges and received scores of 1, 2, and 2. In the sight-reading portion, they earned a Superior rating of 1. That’s Excellent and Superior ratings from every judge!
We are incredibly proud of the hard work, dedication, and talent these students demonstrated. Way to go, PGJH Band! 🖤💛
