Congratulations to the 6th-grade band students of VIS and across the district, along with the Vicksburg Warren School District band directors!
We are beyond thrilled to announce that the 6th-grade Band students from VIS, Bowmar, and South Park received Superior ratings at today’s festival! This is a band's highest score—equivalent to scoring Advanced on a benchmark test! Our students did an outstanding performance, and the judges were highly impressed with their attire and behavior. This achievement is a testament to their hard work, dedication, and perseverance—and the incredible leadership of our band staff, who have guided them every step of the way.
A special thank you to Mrs. Kendra Lee and our phenomenal band directors for their unwavering commitment to excellence. Your leadership, passion, and dedication to these young musicians are truly inspiring. You are shaping not just talented performers, but confident, disciplined, and hardworking leaders of tomorrow.
A huge thank you to all parents, staff, and supporters—your encouragement makes a difference! Let’s continue to celebrate and uplift our young musicians as they grow in talent and confidence.
