Mission Statement

The Evans High School Band is a co-curricular program that serves to give students a well-rounded music education that consists of varying educational, performance, and community service opportunities. Students who join the Evans High School Band gain life lessons such as discipline, time-management, commitment, multi-culturalism, and teamwork. Participation in the Evans High School Band will facilitate students’ opportunities to experience the aesthetic pleasure of music, the success of being a vital member of a musical ensemble, and values necessary to be a pivotal member of society.  This occurs when students gain a better understanding and appreciation of music, the process of making music through a variety of ensembles and genres, and become actively involved in the band program.
