Performing Groups

Westview Middle School offers 3 ensembles

Beginning Band

Students in beginning band are in their first year of band. In beginning band, we learn how to play one instrument for a year and classes are mostly taught by individual instrument or instrument family. The band will perform 2 concerts that will take place in Fall and the Spring. This is so students can spend the majority of time learning and mastering the basic skills. You will be amazed at the growth from their Winter concert to Spring Concert! 

Advanced Bands

Students in Advanced Bands are in their 2nd or 3rd year of band. Students who transfer to Westview with prior band experience should notify their counselor and a band director so we may place them in the appropriate ensemble. In advanced band, students are in full band settings daily in class and have many opportunities to perform as a group or individual. They have multiple concerts and performances throughout the year and participate in UIL Concert Band and Sightreading evaluations. You can find any upcoming performances on the band calendar!
