The Capps Middle School Band is dedicated to making music and being the best we can be! It is our goal for students to leave our program as dedicated, hard working young musicians and citizens. Our program consist of a 6th, 7th, and 8th grade bands, an athletic band, and jazz ensemble. Students also perform in small ensembles when in 7th and 8th grade. It is preferred that students join in 6th grade to not fall behind, but 7th and 8th grades are welcome to join later.
