Welcome to The Central High Broncho Bands Page!

STATE BOUND FOR 2023!!! GO BRONCHO PRIDE!

Here is a list of important dates for Band Members!

Dates applicable to 5^th & 6^th Grade are underlined.

Some of these are tentative dates. This is an approximate calendar. I will do my best to update you all as soon as dates change, or events come up. I will try to give a minimum two weeks’ notice for each event so students or parents may ask off of work.

There will also occasionally be times where students are asked to show up before school or stay after for sectional work (i.e. drumline rehearsal, low brass, etc.)
