Concert Band
Concert band is an in-class activity that takes place during 7th bell every school day. Students will learn how to play an instrument of their choosing and how to play together with their peers as an ensemble. The major events that students are required to be at include four concerts throughout the school year, Basketball games where they will play pep band music, and in class every school day. The class isn’t too hard and only requires a student’s full participation, which includes showing up to Basketball games and concerts both of which are held at the Harrison Activity Center. According to Mr. Egan, the school’s band director, the best part of this class is the opportunity to try something new and be able to perform in front of your family members and peers.
The cost of joining concert band is included with school fees at the start of the year, but students in need of an instrument can rent one from the school for 50 dollars. This does not include percussion instruments, which are already provided by the school and do not cost any extra money outside basic school fees. To sign up, students must include this as an elective when they fill out their schedule for the next school year. Reach out to Mr. Egan with any additional questions at [email protected].
