KCMS Trojan Band members Sophie Cousineau, Sebastien Cousineau and Björn Birkmire earned seats in the All Shore Honor Band following an audition at Colonel Richardson High School in Caroline County on Saturday, February 5, 2022.
“This is a great achievement for our Trojan band members and I am honored to be their band director,” said Troy Stupart, the KCMS band teacher.
