San Gorgonio Middle School Hurricane Jazz Band to Perform at Beaumont School Board Meeting

The San Gorgonio Middle School Hurricane Jazz Band is scheduled to perform at the next Beaumont Unified School Board meeting, Tuesday Sept. 24.

Fifteen students, ages 11 to 14, will perform 5+ jazz charts under the direction of SGMS's director of instrumental music Susana Quinteros, said San Gorgonio Middle drum instructor Skye Kooyman.


The musicians and their mentors are planning the performance as a way to say "thanks" to the district for their support of the arts, Kooyman said.

The performance and meeting will take place at the new district office, 350 Brookside Ave. in Beaumont. Closed session is scheduled at 4 p.m. and the public meeting begins at 6 p.m.

The Hurricane Jazz Band's performance is planned from 5:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. inside the conference room, and for five minutes in the middle of the meeting, Kooyman said.
