I' 5 f ,I MUSIC DEPARTMENT Without the band and without the choirs our life at Stratford High School would be incomplete, far what is more pleasant than listening to the lilting melodies emanating from the Music Room, or watching the peppy band formations at the football games? Remem- ber the various concerts and the excellent music at Christmas assembly with the A Cappella choir and the band stirring our hearts? The Music Department has afforded many with opportunities of being a part of these musical organizationsg others have shared the pep and joy which have been added to our school life.
