CUSD Band students wowed a packed house at Bandtastic! 🎺🥁🎻🎷🎺 This district-wide concert by students in grades 6-12 – and their amazing music teachers – is a crowd favorite that showcases both musical talent and the impact of performing arts in education. Bravo! 👏🎶🎉 For more photos, please visit our Facebook page.
