Band Hits A High Note The bands performed several times this year. One of the first performances was the Christmas Concert on December 15th. All three of the bands performed together. Most of the students enjoyed performing in their nicest clothes. As Heidi Branlund said, It is fun being in front of all those people and getting all that attention. Band members must practice their in- struments almost every day for about an hour to achieve the skill level they have. Most students have been playing their instruments for at least three years and are very dedicated. At the beginning of the year, the band students have never played together as a group and don ' t know each other, but when the time comes to give their first performance, the band is like one big family. 1 42 Band

Waves Of Christmas Christmas carols, holly, trees, gifts, and snow, that ' s what most people think of when the holiday season is mentioned; but here at Nova it ' s a different story. People can be seen during fourth and fifth period classes sprawled out on the floor, racking their brains for creative ideas. This is the season of the tradition- al Christmas door decorating contest. The prizes were points for students ' fourth or fifth period classes toward the Super Class contest. First place was awarded to Mr. Ed Wilson ' s woodshop class. Room 203, Mrs. Julie Ostendorf ' s personal growth class took second, and Mrs. Cheryl Dozier ' s math class in room 122 received third. However, Christmas couldn ' t be all com- petition even at Nova. That ' s why on De- cember 15, at 7:30 p.m.. Nova choir and band performed in the Nova High School Auditorium. These talented students showed Nova ' s Christmas spirit with a wave of music. A 4 11 Waves Of Christmas
