The White Oak High School Marching Band traveled to the UIL State Marching Competition on November 7, 2011, at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.  Our intermediate students enjoyed enjoyed watching as our band students showed them what hard work and dedication looks like at a state-level competition.  Good luck to our band and its director, Jason Steele.  You were GREAT!

Students, you have only 3 more days to get as many cookie dough sales as you can. On Thursday, you will need to bring your TWO completed order forms (one for the cookie dough and the other for the Chick-fila cards) together with your payment envelope.

BE SURE TO HAVE MOM OR DAD DOUBLE CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ORDER TOTAL EQUALS THE MONEY TOTAL. 

All orders are pre-paid.

Good Luck!
