We know that you need a break from this, we understand that. You have a lot of work already so we can imagine that this can be stressful for you and Mr. Faires. But of course none of us need a break, because we have never experienced this before and if we don't this year, we never will. Some of us have looking forward to these two days of preforming ever since Porter Ridge band preformed at our schools. One reason that I, personally signed up for 8th grade band, is because we get more of a feel with preforming. We have had two concerts a year for every year for middle school so far. We will have the same thing for this year, plus the contest. This also gives us a lesser chance of being prepared for high school band. I, personally felt like crying when you told us we were not going to preform this year. So please take this letter to mind, thank you for your time reading this.
