Dear M100 Family,
Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend and Happy Spring Break!!
Just a few new pieces of information to share…please read on.
**If your child receives an award, gets accepted into college, or earns another other sort of distinction, let us know! We are proud and happy to highlight all the great things about our students!
SENIORS - PLEASE READ!!!
Hello M100 Family,
It's Michael Summers, one of the drum majors for those who don't know me. I am so excited to have the job of putting together so many projects to recognize the hard work of the Class of 2022. The Senior Slideshow will be shown at the banquet to showcase your hard work! Each senior will need to provide a picture of yourself from senior year, in addition to a baby picture. This is a highlight of the banquet every year. Please provide both pictures in an email or text message to me.
Another project underway is the senior board in the band hall. This is a wall to recognize the senior class of the M100. It also is supposed to show what our future plans are outside of the M100, whether that be college, military service, or a career plan. Please provide a picture that you like of yourself. I can use the same picture for both the senior board and slideshow.
I am so honored to be able to recognize the senior class! We have faced so many challenges, overcome those challenges, and had unprecedented success that deserves to be highlighted. So please get this information to me ASAP. I have already begun work on the senior board in the band hall and I would love to expand it. An image is attached at the end of this update.
I have provided my contact information for any questions or concerns. Please don't be afraid to reach out to me, I am here to answer any questions. This contact information is also the best way to share your pictures and future plans.
Phone Number ( Best way of contact ) : 254-314-9461
Go M100!
