7th grade Volleyball defeats Carriel in 2 games! Way to go girls!
This week, our HMS Band students are honored to have an amazingly talented guest clinician. Major Michelle Rakers, President's Own Marine Band Conductor (retired), has been working with our students throughout the day to help develop their skills. Mrs Rakers was stationed in Washington DC and directed bands, orchestras and ensembles who performed at the White House for Presidential events and for foreign dignitaries.
The President's Own is considered to be the finest band and orchestra in the United States and possibly the world. This group tours and performs throughout the United States and in Europe regularly.
Under her direction, the President's Own performed for President Clinton, President Obama, President Trump and President Biden.
Mrs Rakers currently resides in Denmark and was brought to Highland Middle School to work with the HMS bands this week and funded by an anonymous donation and we are very grateful for this amazing opportunity.
