4/22/2022
  • Home page and News page updated for Music in the Park event and the 4/30 band trip to the NCBA Concert and Jazz Festival
  • 4/21 traffic ups slightly (I am guessing) due to band boosters meeting.

4/19/2022
  • Site traffic update
    - 8.6 daily unique visitors in average in the past quarter
    - 16.28 daily unique visitors in average (peak at 29, 2nd highest in 2021 academic year) during spring trip update period. I am *guessing* the website reaches about half of the band parents.
    - March has a lot of traffic. I don't know the reason but it's important to know what drives traffic to the site, e.g. county
