Welcome Band Parents!
As the director of the Pride of Hondo High School and the Mighty Owl Band, I would like to welcome you and your students to our Band Program. This site has been made for you! We want to help keep you as informed as possible and let you know about as much as we can when it comes to this awesome band program!
First let me say thank you! Thank you for encouraging your child to be in Music Education. Band students more than any other activity graduates at higher rates, send more to Post-High School Education, and consistently score higher on the SAT/ACT Tests.
Our goal is to provide outstanding musical experience and in that use it to build outstanding citizens. Band will help to teach your child more than just musical performance; we will work on student character, teamwork, and respect. To each day say, “Details Matter” and that “We are Great!” We push our students to find their self confidence in a competitive world.
For common questions check out the FAQ Page (Frequently Asked Questions) and even more detailed information can be found in the Owl Band Handbook.
I would like to also invite you to seriously consider becoming part of the Band Boosters. The Hondo Band Boosters is a vital part of our large band program providing resources that we would not be able to operate without. As usually happens with these types of organizations, a few take on the largest share of the work. With such a large program I am sure that we have plenty of talented people to help propel the Mighty Owl Band to new Heights!
If you have any questions, please to not hesitate to contact me or one of the other Band Directors. Our contact information is on the contact page of this website.
