Heartland Honors Band Festival

Eric Galindo and Nathan Rohner, both seniors at Sandoval High School, have the honor of being selected to perform in the Heartland Band Festival at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. The Heartland Honor Band brings together the finest musical talent of the Heartland high schools to perform music selected by the guest conductors. This honorable performance will culminate the boys' eight year band career at Sandoval which began in the fourth grade. Eric will be on percussion and Nathan will be playing the trombone. The boys will rehearse with the other honor students in the Maroon Band on February 8th and 9th. The concert at Shryock Auditorium will begin at 3:00 p.m. on February 9, 2008.

Centralia Halloween Parade

Mr. Bill Reynolds is the band and chorus director for our district. He has increased our band from eight students to 35 students. He has worked hard to get the band into shape for its first parade. The Centralia Halloween Parade was on October 27th and the Jr.- Sr. band took trophies in many categories.

Great Job Students!
