The band program is thriving with 50+ students in Grade 5 Band and 100+ students in Concert Band.

The concert band has performed in many locations such as Mystic Seaport, Easton's Beach in Rhode Island, aboard the Mount Washington on Lake Winnipesaukee, and at the Music In the Parks Festival in Hershey PA where they received the three top awards in their division.
