The Honors Band consists of accomplished musicians and leaders in the band program who are challenged to perform some of the most artistic literature available for middle school band. Students will perform several times throughout the year including pep rallies, football games, and formal concerts. Each spring this elite competitive ensemble participates in UIL Concert & Sightreading Contest, as well as at other festival performances. Though members of all three bands are encouraged to audition for All-Region Band and participate in Solo & Ensemble Contests, these activities are required for members of this band. Members are expected to take private lessons if at all possible. This class requires time outside of the school day to remain enrolled (concerts, football games, section rehearsals, etc).
