Fine Arts & Performances
View the videos below to watch performances from our AMAZING fine arts programs. These are classes or clubs and organizations that you can get involved in at Hammond!
Hammond Advanced Theatre
The Hammond Theatre Department includes close to 150 students between those enrolled in Theatre courses and those who work on after school productions, either as actors, crew, or instrumentalists in the pit band. This video is a fictional quiz show to help you learn about how you can get involved and why students enjoy being a part of the department. All of the students featured are current Hammond Theatre students!
Hammond Marching Band
The Hammond Marching Band made this virtual performance to celebrate playing music together even when apart. This group is made up of all the students that take the Wind Ensemble course. The Marching Band performs at home football games and the homecoming parade. If you play an instrument and want to get involved in the band, let Mr. Dunlap know!

Hammond is a place where people are important, no matter what race, religion, ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation. We have a unique environment where we use our similarities and differences to create a safe, comfortable community for everyone. Within this environment, we are not able to just exist, but to thrive. Culture Fest is our annual event that celebrates our diversity and heritage.
