Crusader Families,

It has been a great week for our music programs. Our choir and band had awesome performances last week at the holiday concert featuring Halloween and Christmas music and at the Band Pageant. We also celebrated all of our fall athletes at the fall sports banquet. Our BVM athletes and musicians are so talented, work so hard, and make us very proud!

We have one week left before Thanksgiving break. Let's make it a great one!

BVM Cross Country did great in the finals, with some excellent team and individual accomplishments. As always, thank you for your hard work and dedication to your sports and academics.

Congratulations to our crusaders for their participation in the annual pumpkin smash event. Our students spent only one week preparing, building and practicing and walked away with the win!

BVM Advanced Choir showcased their talent in a combined concert with the BVH Concert Choir. Such amazing group and individual performances! So proud of our musicians. We know you're on the right path to achieving great things!

Middle School mass band performance at the 52nd Annual SUHSD Band Pageant. So proud of our Crusader musicians!

The Navy Band visited BVM and took some time to share their knowledge with our students. Great learning opportunity for our Crusaders!

BVM and SUHSD represented for the first time in the Sousa Honor Band with Dr. Judy Grimes as the conductor. Congratulations to Amira Alramadan and Caitlin Dwyer for being selected to participate!
