Hello Band Students and Families!My name is Ms. Thomas, and it is my privilege to be your music and band teacher this year! I am so excited to have you as a part of our program. My goal this year is to share my love of music with all of you, and to help ignite your own musical passions! My personal musical experiences range from childhood piano lessons, to playing clarinet in junior/high school band, and all the way to playing drums in a cover band! I hope to pass on the same desire for lifelong musical learning to all of my students. Archives
