HAWK BANDS
Membership in one of the bands is a full year elective activity and is to be considered a privilege. Students must be academically eligible and exhibit good behavior in all classes to participate in contests, concerts, as well as other events. All directors are committed to providing a positive learning environment for your child. We hold each student to high expectations of performance, behavior, positive attitude, and work ethic. If your child puts forth their best effort, he or she will be successful. The de Zavala Band is a growing program, and together we will add to and build upon its past achievements.
