Pine River is hosting a financial aid night on February 4th for those that have questions or need help filling out the FAFSA forms.
Monday, January 27th, 7 of our HS Band members joined approximately 90 of their peers from across the region for the MSBOA District 1 All-Star Band. This year was exceptional as it was led by internationally recognized composer Randall Standridge, which was exciting for the students and directors alike! The renowned composer traveled to Michigan from Arkansas to serve as the All-Star Band Director for over 100 students in District 1. The young musicians rehearsed with the esteemed composer for nearly 6 hours and performed a concert for family and friends. Mr. Standridge helped students grow musically, but also set aside time to talk in depth about his project: "The UnBroken Project", and the importance of mental health. It was a once in a lifetime experience that allowed students to meet and talk with a living composer. Well done, everyone!
