The PSHS band was excited to host 8th grade band night at this past Friday’s home football game. The afternoon began with a combined rehearsal with the high school and middle school bands, giving the 8th graders a chance to see what high school band is all about. Students also had a chance to mingle and get to know each other during the pizza dinner provided by the PSHS Band Boosters.
The pregame and halftime performances were the highlight of the evening, however, as both Aux Sable and Drauden Point’s bands combined to perform the Star Spangled Banner and PSHS School Song. At halftime, the Aux Sable band, directed by Mr. Brent Rathgeb, gave a great performance of “When the Saints Go Swingin’ In.” Not to be outdone, Drauden Point gave an equally exciting performance of “Bang the Drum All Day.” The PSHS Band then concluded the performance with a unique rendition of “What I Like About You.”
Congrats to all of the 8th grade students on a great evening!
