LMHS JazzRAMS STRAIGHT SUPERIORS!
On February 26 at 8:45pm, the LMHS JazzRAMS took the stage at University High School in Orange City and performed their MPA program. They wowed the judges and people in the audience. Mr. Mitchell said it was the best comments and Jazz Sheets that he has ever received. Great job JazzRAMS! YOU ALL ROCK! After the performance, Mr. Mitchell took the kids to Cici's Pizza!
Calendar for February and MarchEach Tuesday and Thursday are full band rehearsals for both our bands. Since these classes do not meet all together during the day, they are necessary for preparation for our MPA performances. These rehearsals are MANDATORY and are graded. Please check the "THIS WEEK IN LMHS BAND" for specifics.
February 14th our award winning color guard competed against some of the best guards in the central Florida area. The Varsity Guard came in 2nd and the JV Guard improved their score by about 10% with an 8th place win. Way to go team!

Again, Congratulations! PTSA Gives to the LMHS BANDI would like to thank the Lake Mary PTSA and its president Deb Sisco for making a donation to our tower project at our faculty meeting on Wednesday, January 28th. Our PTSA at Lake Mary is one of the most supportive of any groups that I have ever been associated with in my 31 years as a PTSA member. As I sat in the audience and the PTSA leaders came to the podium, they made the announcement that they were giving to the arts. Each of the arts areas (Marionettes/Dance, Chorus, Drama and Art department) received a donation and when I was called up to the podium, I was given a check for $2000. I was shocked and humbled at their generosity. Please thank our PTSA for believing that we are an important part of Lake Mary High School. Below is a link to become a member of the our PTSA as well. It is only $7, and will make a huge difference having a supportive parent base as well.
