The Latest Lee High Band Fiasco

What is going on with the Lee High Band? It is so disturbing to see this. I can remember when Lee and Lanier were THE schools in the area--reputable--and powerhouses in football. Now, suddenly, we have band members playing vulgar music and refusing to adhere to the standards of the school and to do as they were told by the band instructor. And, because of a few irresponsible students, the band was sent home during the final Lee game. I don't blame the director. Yet, at the same time, for those who try to do the right thing, their final game was disrupted by those students who do not respect authority, the feelings of their fellow students, and certainly have no respect for the Lee High tradition.

Young people: you'd better get it together. YOU are the future of this world, like it or not, and you need to start thinking beyond the MOMENT. Life goes by in a blink of an eye and unless you learn respect and good manners in this world, you're in for a very miserable life.

My Photo
Name:
Location: Montgomery, Alabama, United States

I am a retired legal secretary and widow. I grew up in Midway, AL and graduated from Union Springs High School (now Bullock County High). I attended business school; went to Atlanta and lived there for 13 years; lived and worked in Silver Spring, Maryland for seven years. I have a daughter and two granddaughters, and am the middle child of five. Both parents are no longer living. My mother was quite a poet and my father was a self-taught musician and a very good one. My 30-year-old nephew, Bruce Evans, was killed in the line of duty with the Jackson County, MS Sheriff's Department on July 18, 2000, leaving a beautiful wife and two beautiful children, ages 8 and 5 1/2, so I suppose that pushes me to make my voice heard about crime and punishment.
