9th Grade


In accordance with the membership vote at the Spring 2024 Region Meeting, the 9th Grade Band is now a "Patch Band."


9th Grade Patches will be distributed to 9th graders who audition and do not earn a seat in one of the three Region 28 High School Bands based on the Region District/Region Band Auditions.


The same number of patches for the 9th Grade Band will be available as it was in previous auditions.
