Welcome to the Brown Middle School Bulldog band, under the direction of Mr. Michael Mendez. While Brown MS may only be less than 20 years old, in that short time the band has established a reputation campus-wide of discipline, dedication, responsibility and outstanding musical achievement. In addition to musical knowledge and skills, I strive to send all students to the high school level embracing concepts of teamwork, leadership, citizenship, discipline, responsibility, and achieving goals.
This website is where you can come to find out information regarding our schedule (rehearsals, concerts, auditions, etc.), fundraisers, band booster activities, and other general information. You will also find updates on our Facebook page, so be sure to follow us there. Our band handbook is also available on this page. Please review it with your child and return the information sheet as soon as possible. 95% of my communication with you will be via email, so it is extremely important that I get these sheets back from you.
