Creative art experience for mixed grade levels

Welcome to the Ankeney Middle School Band! Beavercreek’s music program is one of the largest student activities in the district, and we are excited to welcome students into this outstanding program.

Band is offered as a class during the school day and becomes part of a student’s regular schedule, just like math, science, or language arts. No prior musical experience is needed. Students begin with the basics, including selecting the instrument that is the best fit for them, and then learn the skills needed to grow as musicians.
