Mt. Lebanon Blue Devil Bands

8th grade JMS student Oliver D. was selected to play first trumpet at the PMEA Junior High District Orchestra Fest. The festival took place at Hampton Middle School March 13-14th, under the direction of Dr. Jeffrey Tedford of Grove City College. Congratulations!

What an incredible accomplishment—congratulations to the Mt. Lebanon Blue Devil Marching Band on a magical and memorable performance trip!

Performing at Walt Disney World is no small feat—it takes dedication, teamwork, and months of preparation. The pride I feel seeing our students represent the Mt. Lebanon School District on such a big stage is truly special.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to:

• The Mt. Lebanon Band Builders, parents, and chaperones who supported every step of the journey
•The staff who guided and inspired
•And most importantly, the students whose talent, discipline, and spirit made it all possible

A special shoutout to Poppins Travel Company, Jon Stolarz, and Stephanie Enedy for crafting an unforgettable experience. Trips like these create lifelong memories, strengthen bonds, and reward hard work in the most magical way.

Here’s to the music, the memories, and many more successful adventures ahead! 💙🎺
