Exciting News!

Great News To Share! There are no doubt many needs in the public school systems today. Among those many needs are some that hit very close to home for our band. We are very fortunate to have been informed recently that Senator Jim Pruitt is going to be able to help us meet some of those many needs. The Zora Ellis Band received a donation of $5000 dollars to use where needed in our band program. With so many things to buy and the desire to get the most for our money, we have made the decision to buy some VERY much needed percussion equipment. This is equipment that is not in need of repair or renewal, it is equipment that we simply do not have available to our excited and motivated students. Not only will this purchase enhance the percussion classes at Zora Ellis, but the addition of these instruments will aid the entire band program in its musical endeavors. I am so excited at the opportunity to add to what the band program at Zora Ellis has to offer. No doubt a Thank You to Senator Pruitt for his generous and supportive efforts.
