what's his name?

From the LU website: Deppe named director of LU bands.

Deppe earned a bachelor of fine arts in music education with an emphasis on instrumental music from Stephen F. Austin State University in 1985 and a master of music education degree from Lamar in 1990.

His 22 years of teaching experience includes a local connection.  He taught band for five years at Bridge City High School.  He has also taught in Nacogdoches, Spring Hill, Jasper, The Woodlands and, most recently, at Klein High School in Spring.  In Deppe’s three years at Klein, the marching band competed at the Texas 5A State Marching Contest, while the symphonic band won the South Coast Music Festival in Corpus Christi.

This is my second-favorite thing about football coming back.  I am pumped about having a bigger band and a marching band.  (My favorite is getting to watch Lamar football.)

Good grief, I remember the GREAT BANDS Lamar used to field during football season.  The fanfares before the game were some of the greatest in America, I am sure.  Really, hearing them caused the hair to stand up on

the back of my neck and it was still 10 minutes till game time.  The band is

an important part of the football games.  I look forward to the whole spectacle.

      Well Mustang fans it's time for my annual end of season rant. I've had so much company up here on the soapbox that I may have to start charging rent. After 3 years I don't think anything needs to be said. We all know what's wrong. We all know why. So what's the decision at the next board meeting? IMO, there's been enough imaginary success for the board to rubber stamp the Superintendent's vision for our future student athletes. #make every second count Due to soft scheduling and a weaker than normal district. The luck of knocking off 2 ranked opponents early when they were not healthy or still trying to figure it out. Also led to a premature ranking and a hollow DCTF weekly award. The 2 late season losses vs ranked teams proves what we know has been the biggest problem.  Football 19-15 .559 Baseball 9-35 .205 Basketball 19-35 .352 GBB 11-29 .275 Softball 1-22 .043 Volleyball 0-38 .000 Overall 59-174 .253   For anyone living in the district, I ask that you contact you're elected board members publicly and privately. Don't let them think this is exceptable. Be the solution to the equation. Not the divisor. This starts at the top and falls heavily upon those walking the halls. They deserve better.

      Sounds like a good idea, and something’s been needed for a long time. I know—where my kids & grandkids live now (DFW area)—schools are like revolving doors for athletic purposes. I don’t think the DPISD & LPISD option enrollment are anywhere like that. I assume it’s pretty above board since it was an arrangement apparently agreed to also by the state. I do know some kids that went to LPISD elementary schools in DP chose to go to DPHS because of the district rating. (Of course, at the time, DPISD and DP in general wasn’t very racially mixed like La Porte.) LPISD has a high number of kids on assistance programs compared to DP. Say what you will, it does make it more difficult for educational purposes and scores can reflect as much. LPISD is still rated high even with that challenge. Some of the kids that chose DPHS were very solid athletes that I’m sure LP would love to have had attend LPHS. Of course, part of the big rivalry between DP & LP has always been because DP ‘looked down’ on LP even though we worked side-by-side. Now that Shell DP refinery has been sold to PEMEX, DP is changing. Some aren’t happy about it. Some of us in LP are kinda tickled about it after the history.
