From Sunnyvale Middle School to Sunnyvale High School, our SHS and SMS Raider Band students are honing their skills, building confidence, and creating a strong tradition of excellence in music. SHS band members shared what band means to them.
"Band is all about community, but it's also about working towards something beyond academics. It gives you a concrete, achievable goals to work towards." - Ethan Derr, 12, Drum Major
"I have learned a lot about leadership since joining band, and I enjoy teaching the younger members how to march, how to play their instrument; it's a fun teaching experience for me as a section leader.: - Eliana Sandoval, 10
"What I like about band is the community. Joining band has helped me build a community I lacked and make all kinds of friends." - Sydney Wofford
