We are excited to be hosting several clubs as part of our overall band program. These clubs are optional for all students to join and are meant as extension to their in-class learning. Please be on the look out for more information on how to join these clubs!

Jazz Band - Jazz Band is an extracurricular audition based ensemble. Jazz Band is open to all 7th and 8th grade band students, as well as 8th grade guitar/orchestra students, or any students with prior guitar or piano background. Students must be enrolled in a Music class at FWS to participate in Jazz Band. Jazz Band meets on Tuesdays after school starting in October. Students in Jazz Band are expected to uphold high performance standards by demonstrating superior rehearsal techniques and practicing their music outside of rehearsals. Jazz Band will participate in a variety of community perfromances throughout the year.
