WINTON EAGLE BAND
Our band has won numerous awards over the years. To
insure the band members get the most out of their practice time, the band is
divided into three classes (percussion, brass, and woodwinds). Each
class meets for one academic period every day during regular school hours.
All three classes meet together as a unit about two weeks prior to
performances.
The Winton Eagle Band participates in parades and band
reviews during the fall and spring. Our musicians also present Christmas
and Spring concerts to the student body as well as evening performances for
the entire community.
WMS also has a chorus which is formed by way of a simple
audition. The chorus collaborates with the band during the Christmas and
Spring concerts, and practices two class periods each week.
Beginning band and chorus instruction
involve class pull-outs, so the students participating in these programs are
expected to make up any missed academic assignments.
