What is Band?

Message from the director:

Parents, in the fall, your child can begin playing a musical instrument in the Holy Redeemer Catholic School Band program. When he or she brings home an instrument for the first time, it is more than just an exciting day. It is perhaps one of the greatest opportunities in your child's life so far. There are not many subjects taught in school where your children can have fun, learn a beautiful art form, and develop life skills needed to be successful beyond their school career. Please join us for this wonderful musical journey!

Students who participate in music have the lowest levels of current and lifelong use of alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs among any group in our society.

H. Con. Res 266 United States Senate, June 2000
