Feedback: Daughter has been in band since 6th grade About: Westlake Groundbreaking: ACHS Band Photo Ed, I was looking at the picture and notice that you all didn't have my daughter's first name, Please post it for me, I'm so proud of her; she is a senior this year and has been in band since 6th grade. My daughter is the first one in 3rd row--Kisha Burton. Thanks, s/Cathy Burton Thank you for adding the ID. We have now added Kisha's first name to the photo. The photo caption still lacks the names of the players not visible. If anyone can help with those names, we'd appreciate it.
