The school has reversed their decision and our students are headed back to the stadium for their final rehearsals. I am truly stunned by how quickly this turned around once you all added your names to the list. Please take a moment to be proud of the space you created …

Our Marching Band has placed FIRST at every competition this season. Our color guard has taken sweepstakes TWICE, beating all of the other school's color guards.
Our over 100 students should not have to relocate their final rehearsals off campus, nearly 5 miles away, with thousands of dollars of instruments, in order to finish out their winning season.
We ask that our final rehearsals be put back into the stadium at Cal High, with the same schedule (Mon/Wed night) that we have had all season.
Thank you,

I am honestly a bit overwhelmed by the amount of people who have stepped up to support our band and color guard so quickly. This response is entirely due to your dedication to these students and their incredible season. I never imagined this would get so much attention when I first started it.

Keep the band at the stadium. They earned it.
Ridiculous decision. Moving that much equipment 5 miles away is a nightmare. Leave the rehearsals where they belong.
Go band!! They represent this school better than any sports team. Let them practice at home.
Total incompetence by the admin. The band is winning championships and this is the thanks they get? Unbelievable.
Why punish the kids for being successful? Really makes no sense. Change it back now.

This is rediculous. These kids have worked so hard all season to get first place and this is how they get treated? Let them practice on their own field.
