Performance Ensembles
6th Grade Beginning Band: This group is for students just getting started in band. Here we learn the foundations of music theory, how to assemble our instruments, and to play our first notes. This band has two concert performances and is primarily made up of 6th grade students.
7th & 8th Grade Intermediate Bands: This is the next step for a band member, with more performances and more difficult music to perform in concert. In this class, we build on a musical foundation and work on more technical skills so we can more effectively communicate as a musician.
7th & 8th Grade Advanced Bands: Along with having more performances and more difficult music, this group moves at a quick pace and covers a large amount of material. In our advanced band, we further refine our musicianship by focusing on ensemble techniques, such as intonation and balance, to present a cohesive sound.
Pep Band: Our football and basketball pep band is made up of all members of the 7th and 8th grade bands. This group performs modern pop and rock music at home football and basketball games.
Blue Band: The Blue Band is a beginning level band for 7th and 8th grade students that want to begin learning an instrument but are not in the regular band class. It is also a class for current band students that are learning another instrument.
