We talk a lot about our high schoolers, but let's not forget the younger members of the band family. On October 9^th, the 8^th grade band performed their first concert of the year. Families filled the auditorium to see their student take the stage, and the students scanned the crowd for familiar faces as they prepared to show off their hard work.

Our Junior High ensembles delivered a strong and confident performance, sounding remarkably advanced for their age. It is one concert of many for the future of these young musicians and we’re excited to see how their talent grows throughout their years in the Benton Panther Band.
