BRHS band sees drop in membership numbers

While school systems continue to adjust with each COVID-19 variant, the Benjamin Russell High School band continues to navigate the long-lasting impacts of the pandemic.

“It’s been since 2019 since I have had the opportunity to speak in front of the board and at that time nobody really thought or saw what was coming,” Dale Bloodworth, band director at Benjamin Russell, said. “Needless to say, it’s not only changed the trajectory of education but also our education planning and support of the arts.”
