The Rossville Consolidated School District is excited to announce a new chapter for its music program and invites all current and prospective band students and their families to meet the district’s new Band Director, Mr. Austin Sandel.
A special “Meet the New Band Director” event will be held on Wednesday, July 22, at 6:00 p.m. in the Rossville Band Room. Families should enter through Door E7.
The informal gathering will give students and parents an opportunity to meet Mr. Sandel, enjoy refreshments, ask questions, and learn about the exciting plans for the upcoming school year.
“We are thrilled to welcome Mr. Sandel to Rossville,” said Superintendent Dr. Jim Hanna. “Music is an important part of a well-rounded education, and we are excited about the energy, creativity, and opportunities he will bring to our students. Whether a student has years of experience or is thinking about joining band for the first time, this is the perfect opportunity to learn more.”
The Rossville Band Program is expanding opportunities for students with ensembles that include:
- Pep Band
- Pit Orchestra
- Additional performance groups based on student interest
Students entering middle school or high school, along with returning band members and families considering joining the program, are encouraged to attend. No musical experience is required for students interested in learning more about becoming part of the Rossville Band family.
The evening will provide a first look at rehearsal schedules, performances, program goals, and ways students can become involved throughout the year.
Rossville Schools believes music education helps students develop confidence, teamwork, discipline, and creativity while creating lifelong memories through performance and service.
