WELCOME to the Hawk Band Family!! Any organization is only as good as its newest members, and Band is no exception! Armwood has always been a hub for talent, and with strong music programs in our elementary and middle schools – our Freshman class is strong both in numbers and in musical ability. There are many ways in which we try to acclimate students and parents to our Band Program. It is always our hope that our communications are clear and sufficient to convey our happenings, but we know there will be questions that will remain unanswered. Below are a few programs we have instituted to introduce and orient our new Hawk Families. For details on what you can expect as a parent, please visit the Booster page.“Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.” - L. Frank Baum
Every ensemble does have meeting times after school. Before each rehearsal there is a mandatory time for study hall. During study hall students should be working on academic studies, if you are caught up on academic studies then students should be practicing / prepping for rehearsal.
Rehearsals after the marching band season ends:
During the school year the band room is open in the mornings from 7:30 am - 8:35 am. During this time music students can come into the band room and practice their instruments, get help and make-up missed playing assessments.
