Good Afternoon Jaguar Families,

Congratulations to the 2023 Hilliard Bradley Marching Band for receiving an overall rating of “Superior” at the OMEA State Marching Band Finals this past Saturday. The band had a fantastic performance, and received Superior ratings from all 7 judges. This is the 13th consecutive year that the band has received an overall “Superior” at State Finals.

The students of the Bradley Marching Band put in well over 200 hours of rehearsal, not including Friday night football games and competition Saturdays. They did an excellent job representing Bradley wherever they went, both on and off the performance field.

Next Tuesday, the building will be closed for staff professional development. Class will resume on Wednesday November 8th.

Finally, tonight at 7:00pm, the Jaguars will be taking on Westerville North High School at Bradley High School in the second round of the high school football playoffs. We look forward to seeing those of you who can make it.

Have a great weekend and Go Jags!
