Staff Writer May 30th, 2013 was the day Hubbard’s Band performed their Spring Concert, and for some seniors, their last year performing. As many of the seniors were getting ready to perform, many of them were low spirited because of the fact that they created such a big bond with Mr. Stalberg, Mr. Benson, and their classmates, and their “Band family” was going to end soon. Being in band has a lot of perks for upcoming freshman, sophomores, juniors, or seniors. Perks include learning to play an instrument, reading music, and learning to play with others as well. Students joining band next year will be able to go on field trips to play in other places. Personally speaking, my three years in band were really marvelous because of some of my classmates and my band teachers. Although rehearsals may be exhausting, it will be worth it at the end knowing you learned to play an instrument. Just like any other activity, or sports team, band is great and I encourage students to join it if you have a passion for music. Feedback from one of the band members: “Band has been amazing and fun. I’ve been in band for 3 years and I’m happy to say that it’s one of the best choices I’ve made in high school. I learned about music and how to make music! [I] met new people; even my best friend is in band. It’s lots of fun and I’ll never forget about band.” Denise Flores (Div. 410).

Staff Writer My fellow seniors, it’s time for us to continue our dreams and fulfill them; accomplish our dreams and make them reality. We all had a great experience in high school with our friends, boyfriends, girlfriends and we need to continue. Some of us will continue to see each other and probably some seniors will lose contact with the person they had great memories. Like some of us would say during our freshmen year: “I never believed the seniors during my freshman year when they told me high school goes by too fast. I wish I would’ve listened to them”. By the time we all hit senior year, many would say “I remember freshman year looking at the seniors; they looked all grown up and cool. Now here I am, about to be one of them”. |
