What a great start to our competitive season. Can't wait to get better throughout the season.

Last night, our Spartan Community Band delivered some incredible performances to mark Music in Our Schools Month 2024!🎵 With over 130 musicians spanning from seventh graders to retirees, this year's groups showcased pieces aligned with the theme "I See ME (Music Education)." Thank you to everybody who came out to show support and all of the people who worked so hard to make this an amazing event!

Great concert tonight, #SaegerJazzBand, #SMS7thGradeBand, & #SMS8thGradeBand! We are proud of your hard work, your performances, and your professionalism this evening! @fhcspartanbands @ArtsFhsd @SaegerMiddle @SpartanEncore

Our 94 #SMSBeginningBand students had their first combined rehearsal yesterday in preparation for their concert on Jan 22nd! They did an amazing job, and we can’t wait to share their work with you in a couple of weeks. @SpartanEncore @SaegerMiddle @fhcspartanbands @ArtsFhsd
