- electronic music (those who wish, may explore)
- two band classes for 7th/8th graders. We will still perform together, but will also work in smaller groups as well.
- Music Learning Theory – our friend Ms. Judy Drtina will work with us

UNC Honors Marching Band – Sept. 6 (for US Students)
If you are seriously considering going to UNC, I highly recommend this. Free admission to a UNC football game and you get to do everything the band does at games.
