This past weekend, February 20, and 21st, our students made history! For the first time ever, we combined students from Desert Wind MS, Desert Sunrise HS, Maricopa Wells MS, and Maricopa HS for the MUSD Honor Band and Orchestra Festival. 25 DWMS students represented our program between band and orchestra. This is hopefully the beginnings of a brand new tradition in our district. Congrats to all students who made it in and a huge thank you to all the teachers and families who made this weekend possible!

Two more weeks until our main concert March 5th at 6:30!

Another day of excellent music making! This weekend it was all about Band with the Southern Arizona Honor Band. DWMS was represented by 8 students ranging from 6th-8th grade this year. 35 schools came together today from the southern half of Arizona. Students are nominated based on director recommendations and only meet one day and then perform together after nearly 8 hours of rehearsing! Congratulations to all students involved! Stay tuned for next week as MUSD begins a new tradition for our music programs!
