Dear Band Parents,

Today was our 12th annual Veterans Day Celebration at OVMS.  We put this program on to honor the Veterans in our community.  The Symphonic Band did a great job performing several selections for the program.  I wanted to share some of the photos with you.  The Gainesville Sun was also here this morning and will be posting an online article later today.  I will share the link when it is posted. 

I also wanted to thank Melissa Blaylock, Dana Caspersen and Jennifer Culleton for helping with the Veterans breakfast this morning. 

Your kids are such a joy to teach and today's performance is just another reason I love teaching at Oak View.  We had our Superintendent and several school board members in attendance today and they were so impressed with how all 900+ of our students behaved during the program and they raved about the Symphonic Band's performance.  Thank you so much for your kids.  They are wonderful. :) 

Have a wonderful weekend!

Mrs. Pirzer
