A heartfelt thank you to the Dumas High School Bobcat Band for an awe-inspiring performance! Today they uplifted our students at Reed with a magnificent concert featuring Go Mighty Bobcats, Selections from the Lion King, See You Again, and more. The band members' instrument demonstrations sparked excitement among our students, inspiring a new generation of musicians. We are forever grateful to Mrs. Leah Venable, Ms. Maria Lopez, and Ms. Sally Willems for this unforgettable experience!
