Our music students are some of the best and brightest on our campus! Our music students are dedicated to their craft and work hard to master their instruments. They are committed to stellar attendance, work ethic, and class participation. Our students are made up of diverse socioeconomic groups and various ethnic and racial groups as well. We have students who travel from across the district to participate in the music program here. Throughout the pandemic and online learning, our students have stayed connected and been dedicated to making music.
Representation of various cultures and backgrounds can be found through the diversity in our curriculum itself. Our music curriculum includes music by diverse composers such as Soon Hee Newbold and William Owens. Learning the stories behind the composers and the music is part of understanding the music I teach. This helps us to see ourselves reflected in the composers and musicians whose music we learn to play. These musical instruments make playing in the middle school band possible!
Our students utilize school-provided instruments and equipment every year, and our ability to provide these instruments is a critical part of the success of our music program.
