This past weekend, the very first Monarchy Jazz Band participated in SCBDA's Jazz Performance Assessment and earned a SUPERIOR rating! This is history in the making! This group is a cumulation of 7th graders and a few 8th graders who attended after school rehearsals to prepare three pieces to be played for judges. They received some great feedback, and we are so excited to see jazz at Marrington continue to grow! This is a massive accomplishment and we are so proud of the Monarchy Jazz Band!
