Purchase HBHS Band 2026 Photos

Last month we took our HBHS Oiler Band group photo and individual photos. Students were sent home with a paper order form that photo packages could be pre-ordered with, but you can still order photo packages online.

Use this link to view the album, and the code to use is your students first and last name. Please email the photographer, photohousehb@gmail.com if you have any questions.

2026-2027 OMG Board Member Position Availability

We are in the process of recruiting for next year's OMG Board Members! Here are the following positions needing to be filled:

• VP of Orchestra

• VP of Band

• VP of Colorguard

• Assistant Treasurer

All of these positions co-lead with someone else so don't worry, you will have a fellow parent with some experience able to show you the ropes.

In recognition of the time and talents volunteered of our Board Members, a 20% rebate

of dues paid for all of the programs your child is involved in throughout the year is being

offered! This can really add up for those families who have children in multiple groups

and events throughout the year (i.e. marching band, drumline, color guard, jazz band).

Please reach out to Sara Sprague, OMG Board Parliamentarian at (310) 406-5912 if you are interested.
