El Portal School Band.... an update

After a wonderful first year making music, the YMBF instruments have fallen silent. Unfortunately, due to budget cuts, the entire band program has been cut from our school's curriculum. Two years worth of students have been without the melodious honking and tooting of Friday afternoon band practice. We are ever hopeful that we can revive some sort of band program at EPS for the 2011-2012 school year! Until then, the YMBF refurbished flutes and clarinets are carefully stored at Yosemite Park High School.
