Earlier this month, two Brandywine Heights students auditioned for District Band, a select festival ensemble made up of students from school districts in seven counties, including Berks. Junior Madeline Roibu (clarinet) and 8th grader Louis Johnson (baritone saxophone) both qualified for District Band and will represent Brandywine at the festival in January. Congratulations to Maddie and Louis on this outstanding accomplishment!
