The Presidential Inaugural Committee has notified us tonight that due to weather and the movement of events, the SCHS Band, as well as the other high school bands invited, will not be able to participate. This is very disappointing news, as we know that our students and staff have spent countless hours working and preparing for the parade.
In the spirit of resilience and because a vast majority of the travel expenses are non-refundable, the band will still travel to Washington, D.C. We are working with members of the Tennessee Congressional Delegation on details for a public performance in honor of the 60th Presidential Inauguration.
We are very thankful for the overwhelming support we have received from our community. The financial contributions from individuals and businesses from all across the Volunteer State have been truly humbling.
While we are not able to perform in the parade, we are still proud to represent the great State of Tennessee in Washington and in our performance honoring this historic occasion.
Thanks for your understanding and continued support of our students and staff.
