Instrumental Music Classes and Groups Available for students at SCHS

Tradition

The Sand Creek High School Instrumental Music program has a tradition of excellence.  Our students develop a tremendous work ethic in order to carry on that tradition with each new school year.  The Scorpion Instrumental Music program continues to move in new directions in music-making.  We look back on the past with respect and we work towards the future with new goals and determination.

Core Ensembles and Goals

As it should be, our students' greatest musical growth and experiences come from the core of the SCHS program; Symphonic Band, Wind Ensemble, String Orchestra, and Chamber Orchestra, Jazz Band, Marching Band, and the Percussion Techniques class. Each class requires a year-long commitment of great music-making.  We believe in teaching our students to play well, to develop listening skills and sensitivity, to express themselves in music, but most importantly to be respectful, hard-working members of a “team” persevering together toward goals that we cannot reach alone..
