High School Band
The High School Band is the most visible ensemble in the E-Hawk Band Program. They begin every year in August with Summer Rehearsals to prepare for Marching Band season. Following the conclusion of Marching Band, students transition to concert band in preparation for a Holiday Concert, and have the option to audition for Jazz Band, which rehearses outside of the school day. After the conclusion of first semester, students begin preparing for Solo/Ensemble Festival, and finish the year out with a concert, Large Group Contest, and Graduation.
The E-Hawk Band program has received numerous division I ratings in both Concert Band and Jazz Band at IHSMA contests in the past. They have qualified for the Iowa Jazz Championships (IJC) numerous times, placing as high as 2nd. Their most recent trip to Des Moines for IJC was in 2006.
