Current research decision

What the wording does—and does not—claim

The evidence for Drumright High School Band does not establish uninterrupted continuity across every named period, reorganization, alias, or possible successor. The packet therefore treats 1936–1946 documented milestones as the supported evidence span rather than a complete institutional chronology.
