Raider Marching Band
Perhaps the most widely known of all the bands, the Raider Marching Band is made
up of over 100+ students and performs at every football game and various competitions throughout fall. Success, hard work,
and perseverance are almost tradition. It is most important from a performance standpoint because we are playing
in front of crowds and crowds of people.
Previous Shows:
2005: Harmonic Voices
2004: El Toro
2003: 1945
2002: The Music of Billy Joel
Wind Ensemble
Of the two concert bands, the Wind Ensemble is the more experienced of the students featuring
mostly Juniors and Seniors and few underclassmen who are good enough. Our current goal this year is to make superior at state.
Symphonic Band
Symphonic Band is a group of mostly freshmen and sophmores who learn the art of playing, basics
and other starting techniques to make good players.
Jazz Ensemble
The Jazz Ensemble offers a wide range of music including jazz, blues, somba,ect. Under the
direction of our very own Mr.O,
he teaches slight theory in a fun upbeat kinda way. Being a small group of 10 to 20 students,
strong friendships develop. Having 30 to 40 minutes of jazz after school and it only being 4 days a week it is an easy credit
and the compititions are fun because we are the best of the best!!
