My middle school students are so amazed about the marching band and there has been an overwhelming response of students who have signed up for beginning band. I actually have 45 in one middle school band class and 25 in another middle school band class. Band is a positive avenue for my students. Huntington is in a high poverty area but their passion for music keeps them driven to attend the school. The schools is located in Louisiana and has just recently been transformed to a 7th-12th grade school-within-a- school. Many begin band in 7th grade so the middle school band is structured to feed the high school band. Necessities are needed to allow the students to be able have everything needed to be successful and learn the basics of music to prepare them to move to the next level. Band keeps many of the students out of trouble so there is a big push from the administration to join the band because of the scholarship opportunities to attend college after graduating from 12th grade.
