The HMS Band is a Nationally Recognized Band Program!
About the HMS Bronco Band
Heritage Middle School features 3 bands with students in 6th, 7th and 8th grade. Starting in the 6th grade, the beginning band meets daily in classes with students that play their same instrument. We focus on playing fundamentals and develop musicians to be ready to perform at a high level by the second year. As 7th and 8th graders, students are placed by ability into either the varsity band (Honors Band) or the non-varsity band (Symphonic Band). Our students perform at concerts, contests and festivals and enter in individual and small ensemble competitions. We also participate in fun activities with positive social experiences! (NRH20, Main Event, Laser Quest, parties, limo rides and much, much more!) It is the focus of the HMS Band program to develop in the students a love of their instruments and a love for music. Team work is a fundamental part of the success of the band program. We encourage our students to excel not just as individual players, but as part of a greater whole. We believe it takes a village! We promote academic success and are proud to teach so many well rounded students! |

WHAT BAND STUDENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT BAND.....
“Band is a safe place where I come to learn music, to practice, to have fun and to laugh! I enjoy the 48 minutes that we have together!.” “Band is a place that makes me want to be better and it’s ok to take risks.” “It is so special! I do not know what I would do without band in my life!” “I thought I couldn’t be in band because I had never played an instrument before. It ended up being a lot easier than I thought. Our band directors are caring and great teachers!” "Being in band is such a privilege. I've made new friends and have been able to learn things other students have not." "Band is totally awesome and rad! Playing music has ended up being one of my favorite things to do!" |
