To: John Becker, Principal

Antelope Titan Band and Guard Program

We, the undersigned, are concerned parents who find the recent decision to have Sonora Mello step down from the position of Band Director at Antelope High School to be unfounded, disruptive to the learning environment, and detrimental to the Instrumental Music Department as a whole. In this we urge the Administration not to follow through with this decision. We hope you consider the following signatures as a testament to our unanimous support of the professionalism of the director and her consistent amelioration of the program.

Why is this important?

The students and parents of the Antelope High School Band and Guard program do not support the change of ideas and direction of the program nor the removal of Sonora Mello as the director.
