gdvtd The Wewoka High School Band this year is made up of 64 members drawn from the eighth through the twelfth grades inclusive. There is also a 35 piece seventh grade band. Both of these units have performed at athletic events, parades, and in concerts. In addition, there are beginning band classes in Compton and Central grade schools totaling 23 players. As the band program progresses in the school system, the department hopes to have a separate high school band, junior high school band, and by starting beginners in a lower grade, a fully instru- mentated grade school band. The band has been undergoing a rebuilding process in recent years, and it is proposed to continue this process by striving always to perfect the whole organization through insisting on individual improvement. Through participation in solo and ensemble performance by each band member, higher standards of perfection in performance, self discipline, responsi- bility, and achievement may be attained. Looking forward, Wewoka High School can expect better and better bands. This year, thanks to the Wewoka School Board and the Wewoka Band Boosters Club, the band has received a number of new instruments. The Wewoka Band Boosters Club is made up primarily of parents of band members. The function of this club is to help Wewoka High have a better band and to foster the appreciation of music in this community. It helps the band financially by purchase of instruments, etc.. and helping with transportation problems. This year saw the re-activation of the Baton Club, the membership of which includes the band director, the band officers, and first chair players of the band. Purposes of this organization are betterment of the band by supervision of playing of individual band members and their instruction by first chair players in each sectiong supervision of discipline within each sectiong acceptance of responsibility by members to further training in citizenship and social relations, to planning At top left are officers of the band.
