Who We Are |
Jazz Band meets as a zero hour class each morning at 7:20am in the band room.
While traditionally a high school ensemble, early participation waivers can be made for participation by students younger than grade 9. However, enrollment in another band class is mandatory. |
Jazz Combos |
Jazz combos are small 5-8 member ensembles that perform a variety of jazz and other literature appropriate for the genre and venue. Membership is usually comprised from members of the jazz band, but can include students unable to enroll in the jazz band course. See Mr Lowe for further details.
