ALIEF ISD 8TH GRADE NIGHT - Elsik HS Sept 24th
Dear Albright 8th Grade Band Students and Parents/Guardians,
Alief Independent School District is excited to invite all current 8th grade band students to experience an evening with their future high school at a high school football game! This is a great opportunity for 8th grade band members to experience what high school band will be like by going through what game day at their respective high school is like. The evening will build on the band culture that is already established in Alief and will be an excellent way to show support towards the fine arts programs we have established. Albright 8th grade students will be able to stay with their respective high school through the first half of the game and watch the marching band perform during half time.
All students will stay after school and ride the bus to and from Crump. If you would like to take your child home directly from Crump you MUST parent square Stephanie Wiens by midnight the night before the event.
