Marching Band (PE credit)
Do you want to represent our school and community with pride? Our award-winning marching band is the most seen group on our campus. The color guard is part of this ensemble. The band performs at football games, parades, field competitions, assemblies and pep rallies. Members not only learn how to march, play and spin, they learn important leadership, teamwork and fitness skills too. Many members of this ensemble become life-long friends. The marching band is a very tight knit family that has a lot of fun and will welcome you in with open arms. Members of this ensemble must also be enrolled in either a concert band, jazz band or color guard class. This class is PE credit. No audition required. Watch this video to see a performance.
