@IlliniStats Illinois has now started 5-1 for the 3rd time in 4 years. If I'm not mistaken... -The last 3 5-1/better starts were in 2011, 2007, 2001 -The last back-to-back 5-1 starts were in 1989-90 -The only times this has happened in a 4 year span: 1950-53, 1924-27, few times in the 1910s

December in the band room means holiday sweaters and swag, but it also means chamber ensembles! Each year all of our 7th/8th graders work together to prepare 1-2 songs in small groups for our recital in February. It's the ultimate group project! #thesekidsareawesome #BandFamily
