Junior TJ Polack plays his saxophone solo at halftime for the 2024 marching band show, ‘Coloring Book.’ This year, Polack was one of two soloists in the marching band. “[Polack] is very hard on himself. [His saxophone solo] sounds amazing [and] everyone [cheers] for him; [still], somehow, he thinks it’s a bad performance and he's down. What he does is not easy. It takes a lot of confidence as a person [and] a lot of musical skill to be expressive, and he's doing an amazing job,” drum major and senior Dominic Perez said.

In the parking lot, freshman TJ Polack’s friends sophomores Andrew Block, Timmy Fry and Nathan Thompson lift him into the air at the homecoming dance. Students voted to keep the dance outdoors after enjoying it during 2021. “It felt like the entire crowd was cheering for me,” Polack said. “It was great. No, it was amazing.”
