Dear Tiger Band students & parents -
Well, it’s finally over - and what a great run it was! We are very proud of our Fighting Tiger football team for providing such an exciting season! Many thanks to all the die-hard parents who helped us throughout this long season - too numerous to mention by name, but you know who you are! Thanks to our incredible Band Boosters for your help and support! And a great, big thanks to our awesome Tiger Band Student Officers for your hard work and leadership! Well, not much happening this week, but here are your updates:

Dear Tiger Band parents & students,
First, we want to say congratulations to our 2009-2010 Region 26 band members! These four students competed and were selected to perform with the Region 26 Band in January. Congrats to Tyler H. (Concert Band Baritone), Josh C. (Concert Band Trumpet) Matthew C. (Concert Band Percussion) and Bryant K. (Symphonic Band Alto Sax).
Looks like there’s no stoppin’ that SPHS Tiger football team! Here is your schedule for next week:

11:30 am - buses depart for Waco ISD Stadium
2:00 pm - SPHS beats Euless Trinity

Here are some answers to questions concerning the Winter Concert:
Q: Why can’t we have the concert in the SPHS Cafeteria?
A: We’ve done that before, without pleasant results. There is not nearly enough seating and the seating that is available is uncomfortable for that period of time. The temperature is difficult to regulate (affecting comfort and tuning) and the acoustics in the cafeteria are not condusive for a band concert.
Q: What happened to the date on the calendar?
A: The date printed on the calendar was a proposed date due to the fact the PAC scheduling committee had not met prior to printing. After their meeting, we received the date of Sat., Dec, 12 for our concert. (Saturday was our third choice for dates.)
Q: Can’t we do the concert next week (Dec. 14-18)?
A: No - the week of final exams is considered a “dead week” by the school district. No after school activities are allowed to give students the opportunity to study for finals.
Only two weeks left before Winter Break! GO TIGERS - WIN STATE!! Have a gr-r-r-reat week, Tiger Band!
