Our KIPP Polaris Band room is truly unique! Taking a section of the cafeteria, we have the highest ceilings in the entire school and lots of space! The downside is the lack of sound dampening, but with so much space, it's easy to spread out when Lunch is not in session. We've been able to clean up the band room area, organize it and declutter to create a truly remarkable Music Studio for our 5th through 8th grade music students.
