WELCOME!
Whether you are a incoming freshman, a 8th grader looking for more information on the band, a confused parent, my mother ( HI MOM! ), or a community member, this page will provide you with information about our section. The band rehearses every day during 5A/5B (5B for Brass) and 5:00-8:30 PM on Thursday nights. The Thursday night rehearsals are critical. All absences have to go through the Directors (Mr. Miller and Mr. Teague). It is also nice to tell at least one section captain. .
