Our group was one of only five jazz bands in the "Jazz 1" category to earn a SUPERIOR rating. This is the first time our Jazz ensembles have received the Superior rating since the 2006 event. This is quite remarkable in light of the overall younger age level of our jazz band members. Good job!!  PHOTOS ADDED - From the Feb 18 band concert and the Feb 19 Jazz band performance at UNO. And finally got some Pep Band photos added 2/24. Also, links for two Jazz Band songs at UNO were added 2/27.
