Band Magnet
The Band program focuses on the performance of wind and percussion instruments. Students receive small group instruction, participate in large ensemble classes, and perform with these groups throughout the year. Experience on an instrument is NOT required, the most important quality of the applicant is their desire to learn to play a band instrument
