A Message From Mr. Tingle:

Lanier Band Parents! 

As you may have heard by now, I will be teaching music at White Oak Elementary starting next school year! I am excited for the opportunity, but also sad to leave my students and parents at LHS. 

I am excited to be at home more with Mrs. Tingle and our girls while still being able to teach in the Lanier cluster and take the role of a LHS band supporter. 

The hiring process will start very soon and Dr. Martin will make the announcement when the decision is made. I am here to answer questions and help in any way possible.

Thank you all for all of your support throughout the years. The band program is thriving at LHS because of our amazing students, parents, and staff members. The best years are yet to come at LHS!
