Jazz Bands 2009-2010
Congratulations to the following students for being accepted into the jazz program at Warren High School. Due to the overwhelming amount of sax auditions, some students have not been selected to perform in one of the two jazz bands at Warren High School. I look forward to the interest continuing and hopefully everyone that has a strong desire to perform in jazz band will get that opportunity to be in jazz band at some point.
