| AISD Trustees and district staff break ground on the new Performing Arts Center. |
At an August 6 ceremony, we broke ground on the new district-wide Performing Arts Center, which will be located along Mueller Blvd. between 51st St. and Barbara Jordan Blvd. This state-of-the-art facility will provide an expansive venue for band, orchestra, theater, dance and visual arts performances by students throughout AISD. Participants at the event enjoyed performances by the All-City Marching Band, directed by Don Haynes, the Anderson Drill Team, and the McCallum High School Color Guard. McCallum student Elena Villalon sang our national anthem beautifully. Many thanks to the students and supporters who braved the heat to celebrate this occasion with district staff.

| The Anderson High School Drill Team performed as if it were a cool fall day---not! |

| The All City Marching Band performed together for the first time in more than five years! |
The district is keeping its promise to AISD voters, who twice, once in 2004 and again in 2008, approved bond funding for purchase of land and construction.
