We have a large instrumental music program of over 300 musicians. Students can play brass, woodwinds, strings or percussion. If they want to, they can be in music all three years of middle school. Many students come in with musical experience and many students learn how to play an instrument in beginning winds/percussion or beginning strings. We are proud that our school and music program is very ethnically diverse.
