Each year, our Band, Choir, and Orchestra ensembles all participate in regional music festivals. The monies raised from our Citrus Sale will help students defray the cost of their personal festival participation. In 2019, our best sale ever, our music students SOLD 1,498 boxes and earned a PROFIT of $21,820.
