Students in the Fallon Band Program are committed to teamwork, excellence, and being the best band member possible. And we have fun along the way! 

Students in the Fallon Band students have four expectations to strive for everyday throughout the school year:

• Treat others the way you want to be treated

• When teaching is happening, you are listening

• Show up physically and mentally prepared

• Give you absolute best every day
