Band Placement

Band Placement is by audition so your child gets the best experience possible!  As a new member, they will have an audition to see which band they should be in and then that will detrmine what time of day they need to be on-campus.

Our Band Offers…

• Beginning Band: For students with no previous band experience (grades 4-12). Each weekly rehearsal is one half-hour long, with an additional half-hour group lesson. Beginners typically start with group lessons only for the first few weeks. At the beginning of October, Beginning Band practices for the first time as a complete group.
