Sunday, January 22, 2012


January is in full swing! 

There is Jazz Ensembles; Winterguard and Pit Orchestra.

All District Band
Congratulations to our students who made All District Band. It's an honor to have Jordan High School represented.

Spring Trip Payments
Send your Spring trip payments in as soon as possible.
With January's payment there should be at least $400 in your student's account. Each student should have shown you an update of your child's account. If you haven't seen it yet ask them and hopefully they can produce it. If not please contact Lauren Cierpial.

You can register your name and GoodSearch will show a tally of what each supporter raises towards our cause.
