We know that the 2024-2025 FSMS Band will build upon this reputation and continue the “Tradition of Excellence” established over the past 23 years. This success is due to the students understanding the importance of good work habits, dedication, self-discipline, responsibility, perseverance, teamwork, and hopefully recognizing how these characteristics will help them be successful in band, as well as in all their future endeavors.

**For current students, all band-related information and documents for the 2024-2025 school year can be found in their band Schoology course.**
