This level of performance allows students to perform with a full band ensemble nearly everyday. Therefore, the prerequisite for this ensemble is that students will need to have had 2 years of music training to participate. This is taken care of via the 6th and 7th grade percussion classes. Other students will need to contact a director and perhaps audition into the group.

 This page is able to be used mainly as a reference. Here you may find concert dates and information on how to take the next step into a high school program. 

Some music is available here for enrichment, further study, and or just preparing for the future as a Freshman in high school. 

Congratulations, if you are in 8th grade band, then you are already in! 

However, we do have to audition for instruments in marching band and concert band placement for second semester. The following will tell you how to get ready for this process at whatever high school you will be attending. Click on whatever high school you are attending next year.
