Likely: PK Younge Developmental Research School, FL That's quite a mouthful for an announcer. Right up there with Plymouth Canton Educational Park and Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders.

Likely: PK Younge Developmental Research School, FL That's quite a mouthful for an announcer. Right up there with Plymouth Canton Educational Park and Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders. Now just listed as "The Ann Richards School", though the "for Young Women Leaders" is still part of the school name per their website

Someone on another thread commented that they dislike fancy marching band names (e.g., "Royal Scarlet Laser Mosquito Regiment" instead of "Bugtussle High School Marching Band"). I absolutely detest all of these half-sentence high school names loaded with meaningless corporate speak. Developmental Research School? Good grief. These aren't thirty-something post-grads working on their doctoral studies. It's a high school.

Color me completely and utterly shocked if Haltom beats Tarpon Springs in even a caption. They'll comfortably take home a medal, though.

I doubt they’ll make finals but always good to go and have a good experience for the kids. Yeah, they’re hitting the ground running and it should be a great experience for them. The new band director is the old director at Ardrey Kell.

I am hearing good things about catawba ridge. however even making finals in this field will be tough for them I suspect I agree that it will be very difficult for them to crack the top 12, but the fact that they're willing to travel to Orlando in basically their second season makes me excited for the possibilities of them doing BOA in the future. All three FM bands doing BOA would be a lot of fun.
