Support the Elementary Band Program

We are sad to learn the District canceled Band for 4th and 5th graders starting Fall 2025.

We are actively working on options for students to continue Band as a parent run program, trying to keep the program as similar as possible.  Please >> click here << and fill out this short survey if you are interested.  We would love to hear from you!

If you're interested in helping do the same for Orchestra, please contact us!
