Band Staff are crucial to the Band!
Whether designing drills, writing music, running training camps, or teaching clinics, our staff has been the key to our accomplishments.
From band officers to section leaders, our student leadership plays an important role in a successful program.
Without the parents, there is no program! We appreciate our parent volunteers. Go Eagles!
Looking for Volunteers!
