Band

Being in the band affords many opportunities for leadership, character growth and development, and service opportunities to share Christ in the community. Students have fun and learn to work together as a team.

The band has its roots in the military, and it is centered around patience, discipline, and personal sacrifice for the betterment of the group. Band fosters a culture of community and is excellent for college preparation and building a resume.

Overall, the band is a blast for students and their families, and I would enjoy speaking more to you about the benefits of being a band member!
