UIL BAND CONCERT & SIGHT READING RESULTS:
Congratulations to the Somerville High School Band for receiving first-division ratings from all six judges at the UIL Region 18/26 Concert and Sight Reading Contest on Wednesday, March 8th. The contest was held at the Wilhelm Performing Arts Center in Bastrop, Texas. Judge's comments included: "many nice musical moments today", "well-prepared ensemble', "a few intonation issues", "students don't play wrong notes", "I enjoyed your performance", and "nice percussion work."
Since the Yegua Band received a first-division rating at the UIL Marching Contest in October of 2022, they have again been awarded the UIL Sweepstakes Trophy for first-division ratings in marching, concert, and sight reading. This is the twenty-sixth year that the Somerville Band has been awarded the Sweepstakes Trophy in the last twenty-eight years. Congratulations again to the Yegua Band!

A Rare Disease is any disease, disorder, illness, or condition affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the United States is considered to be rare. There are approximately 7,000 rare diseases. Most rare diseases are genetic.
Chances are you know someone who might have a rare disease. Many different types of cancer fall under the umbrella of "rare diseases", including many pediatric cancers. 72% of the diseases are genetic and almost 1 out of 5 cancers is rare.
Rare Disease Day is the globally-coordinated movement on rare diseases, working towards equity in social opportunity, healthcare, and access to diagnosis and therapies for people living with a rare disease.
Rare Disease Day is observed every year on 28 February (or 29 in leap years)—the rarest day of the year.
People are asked to wear stripes or bright bold colors. Those with a rare disease are called zebras in the medical field, many also consider themselves to be unicorns.
The Somerville Education Foundation needs your support for a great cause on Wednesday, March 1st from 5 PM to 8 PM @ Las Fuentes: Enchiladas for Education!
Come support the Lady Yegua softball team at their tournament at home tomorrow.
