Our Middle Griffins turned out big for the first day of XC practice. Way to go, Griffins! Looking forward to a great season! #GriffinsRun #NDMSCrossCountry2026

Today was our Mighty Griffin Band's first help day for All State Honor Band Auditions, which will be held in the fall. The All State Middle School Honor Band is comprised of the best middle school musicians who prepare multiple scales, 2 difficult songs, and perform a song they’ve never played. Some of our Middle Griffin musicians will audition on multiple instruments! Their audition recordings are then judged by professional musicians and educators across the state, scored, and students will be notified if they are selected. If they do make the All State Middle School Honor Band, they will perform January in New Orleans where they’ll spend days rehearsing incredible music, attend concerts, eat great food, and experience more Louisiana music and culture. Good luck to these Griffins and others who were unable to attend as they prepare for their audition!

Our Lady Griffins did a great job in the Calvary Volleyball tournament with 6/7th grades advancing to a third round before falling short and the 8th grader making it to the Championship game against Calvary, but coming up short. Way to go, Lady Griffins!

It sure was hot but our Mighty Griffin Middle School band sounded awesome at Tuesday night's Meet the Griffins! We’re excited to see our band program grow and hearing our halls filled with music. #GrowingTogether #MightyGriffinNDMSBand #GriffinPride
