Our Co-curricular Ensembles are an extension of the great work students do in our performing music classrooms! Below is a list of our co-curricular ensembles in Band, Choir and Orchestra that meet before or after school. Students must be enrolled in a grade-level music ensemble course in order to participate in these co-curricular ensembles. Please see your director for more information!
