“I originally didn’t choose to do band,” freshman Halleigh Stephens said. “My mom asked me to because she said it would be fun, but I’m honestly glad I did. Most people said that band wouldn’t be fun but it really is. A lot of the good memories I have are from band, specifically 7th-grade year with my best friend, or my BBB, Finn like the time when we went to contest or when we had that solo competition at the Westover. I never really thought that joining band would be a good decision, but I am honestly glad I did because of all the people I have met. As of right now, I have no intentions of quitting band. I plan on staying in until I finish school, even with the new school being built. I’m honestly glad my mom asked me to join band because then I wouldn’t have made all the amazing memories that I have from band.”
