Welcome Band and Orchestra Incoming Freshman

Welcome Class of 2015 to Poway High! You have a lot of choices and decisions to make about the direction you will take as you embark on your high school years and we are so excited that you are interested in making music part of your education.

Joining the PHS Instrumental Music Program is a great choice. Freshmen music students have the unique opportunity to work with upperclassmen and build friendships that will last well beyond your high school years. Studying and performing music will:

enhance your overall academic performance (the music students
as a group have superior GPAs)
incorporate you into an award-winning, positive environment
provide community service and leadership opportunities
be great fun

Note that all prospective Marching Band students should sign up on their CRF for Marching P.E. and Freshman Band.

Check out this page for more information and great videos about the Band and Orchestra programs. If you or your parents have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to you becoming part of the PHS Instrumental Music Program Family.
