The Monett Performing Art Center hosted the inaugural All-Big 8 Junior High Honor Band Concert on Feb. 15. Seventh- and eighth-grade students from each Big 8 Conference school were nominated by their band instructors to be a part of the event. Students met at 8 a.m. and learned several new pieces of music, which were performed at a concert that evening. Jared Lankford/monettsports@gmail.com
